WORDS - ACRES AND ACRES

released on "Country I Once Knew"

For acres and acres
I can see your face clear
But once up close
Your features distort
With the road as our canvas
With our love we will steer
Illustrate the escapade with a pen...
As our sword
We'll pick up our feet
And march through the mud
And over the hill
We'll find our street
With a little liquor and some luck
We'll float through the flood
We'll take what we can grab of what's left...
Off the floor

In the trees
We will hide
And we'll feel free
On the inside

For years and years
Our mold has been altered
Oh the treasure chest
Has caused all this messed
The sun is hidden
In the land of forbidden
Our destiny has been laid out...
On the bed
But we'll rise to our feet
Sail the seven seas
And in the wind
We'll hear what's been said
About the gap that's been bridged
And the rivers that connect
And the farm that's hidden beyond...
The bend

On the seas
We will thrive
And in the breeze
We will fly
And when we're free
We will die
