311 - And A Ways To Go lyrics

Searching for something A million miles and a ways to go Ending up wondering Moments I think I know The answer seems to allude me Searching for something A million miles and a ways to go Sifting through nothing Liquid you cannot hold Destination nowhere ooh Destination nowhere ooh-ooh Bro I had a dream man 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 that 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 that 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 A shaman held a rattle that he 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 he started to shout The women in the front at once began to chant While the men beat on drums and that 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 and we're gonna take a ride I don't know if we'll come back
