The Map Burner

Verse 1

Gasoline

Tank is low

Fading silver paint

Rusting on the door frame

I am leaving it

I am losing it

I am moving on

Red clay under my boots

Hot wind hitting my face

Hard

No more waiting

No more heavy weight

Chorus

When you don't look back

The road stays clean

When you don't look back

The glass won't break

Let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Tearing up the map

Verse 2

Ghost town

Dry well

Empty porch swings

Dust clouds rising high

Tired feet

Cold sweat

Moving through the mud

Sunlight stings my eyes

Black dogs barking loud

Run

Keep on running

Keep on making tracks

Keep on cutting ties

Chorus

When you don't look back

The road stays clean

When you don't look back

The glass won't break

Let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Tearing up the map

Bridge

I won't check the mirror

I won't slow the pace

I won't stop for rest

Forget the names

Forget the faces

Forget the way home

It is gone

Just gone

Chorus

When you don't look back

The road stays clean

When you don't look back

The glass won't break

Let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Tearing up the map

Outro

Tearing it up

Let it burn

Only the open road

Only the sky

Only me

Gone

Gone

Gone
