And A Ways To Go

Searching for something A million miles and a ways to go Ending up wondering Moments I think I know The answer seems to elude me Searching for something A million miles and a ways to go Sifting through nothing The sand you cannot hold Destination nowhere ooh Destination nowhere ooh Ooh-eeh-ooh Bro' I had a dream man and it was buried in lore That I was sailing on the seas and I was out to explore And it was lucid in a way homey I didn't need oars uh-uh I had a feeling I'd been there before yo I hit shore it was shrouded in mist And in the distance coming in view a primordial forest A people then approached waving their hands They were speaking in a tongue I could not understand They led me though at last to a beautiful fire And it deepened in a way I forgot I admired What emerged was more than the wholeness within I'd seen the men who had been me the beasts I had been Searching for something A million miles and a ways to go Sifting through nothing The sand you cannot hold Destination nowhere ooh Destination nowhere ooh Ooh-eeh-ooh-eeh-ooh I show them how the rattle valley started to shake Anxiety was filling me and was this all a mistake? An elder fell to the ground marking the dirt He was drawing up a map defining sky and the earth He pointed to the east, north, west and the south And then he pointed to the heavens and we started to shout The women in the front at once began to chant While the men beat on drums and the elder man danced Come on yeah it'll be alright And we're gonna take a ride I don't know if we'll come back Come on yeah it'll be alright And we're gonna take a ride I don't know if we'll come back Come on yeah it'll be alright And we're gonna take a ride I don't know if we'll come back Come on yeah it'll be alright We're gonna take a ride I don't know if we'll come back --- And a Ways to Go - 311
