[Intro] Cold road Steel sky One bag Heavy eyes [Verse 1] Boot print on the white line Maps torn in the backseat Passport in my chest pocket Heart beat louder than the backbeat I’ve been praying in the gas fumes Cursed God in the motel glow Mama said “boy, find your way” Guess I went and chose “I don’t know” [Chorus] Destination unknown But the engine sings my name (my name) Every mile that I roam Burns the rust off all my shame I was made for the storm I was raised by the long, dark road If the future don’t show I still go, I still go (Destination unknown) [Verse 2] Dark thoughts in the rearview Grin crooked on a cracked lip Turn pain into a war chant Each scar like a passport stamp trip Got soul in a clenched fist Got blues in a low growl hum Got a laugh that can break chains Hear it echo when the night goes numb [Bridge] [Bagpipes and flute answer each other, then drop to a single piano line] I don’t need a finish line Just this fire in my spine If there’s a cliff at the end of this drive I’ll yodel in the wind just to prove I’m alive (hey!) [Chorus] Destination unknown But the engine sings my name (my name) Every mile that I roam Burns the rust off all my shame I was made for the storm I was raised by the long, dark road If the future don’t show I still go, I still go (Destination unknown)
