Well thunder beats in 4/4 time
Destruction busts and blossoms
And darkness tips a heavy hand 
Of jokers over nines
Then love climbs out of a totalled car
At the bottom of a valley
While progress dusts off his old clichés 
And polishes them till they shine

Yes I know where I'm going
It's just a hundred miles west of anywhere
Take my hand
Take the wheel
Take the world
Cause I know where to call home
When the turnpike explodes
And the mob runs into the sea

Well the neighborhood just licks its wounds
While the dreamers arm for glory 
And patience makes a last gasp chance
At staving off the cold
Then kindness climbs to the mountaintop
To certify the stories
And conscience dries up like a life
Spent deep in an overload

Yes I know where I'm going
It's just a hundred miles west of anywhere
Take my hand
Take the wheel
Take the world
Cause I know where to call home
When the turnpike explodes
And the mob runs into the sea

The broken world gives up its ghost
And stumbles from the party
While the lookers-on loot their own homes
Thinking what they'd lost they'd found
Then the mercenaries pick their teeth
With the bones of a lesser story
And cram into their Sunday best
When Jehovah comes around

Yes I know where I'm going
It's just a hundred miles west of anywhere
Take my hand
Take the wheel
Take the world
Cause I know where to call home
When the turnpike explodes
And the mob runs into the sea
