Map with No Legend

Verse 1

Cardboard propped on my dashboard

Heavy dirt underneath these broken brittle nails

Staring out through a cracked windshield

You see a dusty ghost sitting there

Missing the whole damn man

Hungry for a different brand of truth

Chorus

You think you know me

Well you don't even see the frame

You think you know me

But you can't even say the name

I'm a map with no legend

A book with the pages torn clean out

Post-Chorus

No you don't

No you don't

You don't know

Verse 2

Twelve years grinding out a paycheck

Down at the yard where the salt eats the iron

I built the houses you drive past

Maybe you recognize the rhythm

Of the boots hitting the pavement

Hard steel ringing through the yard

Sweat on the brow

Fire in the blood

Steel in the spine

Chorus

You think you know me

Well you don't even see the frame

You think you know me

But you can't even say the name

I'm a map with no legend

A book with the pages torn clean out

Post-Chorus

No you don't

No you don't

You don't know

Bridge

Under the streetlights I'm a shadow

Under the awning I'm a stone

Maybe I'm a father

Maybe I'm a sinner

Maybe I'm just tired of the view

Tired of the weight

Tired of the talk

Guitar Solo

Chorus

You think you know me

Well you don't even see the frame

You think you know me

But you can't even say the name

I'm a map with no legend

A book with the pages torn clean out

Post-Chorus

No you don't

No you don't

You don't know

Outro

Walking down the center line

Nobody waving back

Just a face in the crowd

Keep on thinking it

Keep on guessing

You don't know me at all
