ED - Deliverance lyrics

He pointed ahead, where the hills were moving from one side of the road to the other, and growing solid. "That's where I'd go," he said. "Right where we're going. You could make something up there. You could make something and not have to build it on sand." "What could you make?" "If everything wasn't dead, you could make a kind of life that wasn't out of touch with everything, with the other forms of life. Where the seasons would mean something, would mean everything. Where you could hunt as you needed to, and maybe do a little light farming, and get along. You'd die early, and you'd suffer, and your children would suffer, but you'd be in touch." "Oh, I don't know," I said. "If you wanted to, you could go up in the hills and live right now. You could have all those same conditions. You could hunt, you could farm. You could suffer just as much now as if the dropped the H-bomb. You could even start a colony. How do you think Carolyn would like that life?" "It's not the same," Lewis said. "Don't you see?" It would just be eccentric. Survival depends-well, it depends on having to survive. The kind of life i'm talking about depends on it's being the last chance. The very last of all."
