You got out
Bruised and bowed
You can live
On the road

All strung out!
Bear no load
You can lift
Off the road

Light river, over America
Spent my sword on a ploughshare
Looked for the future and it wasn't there
Light river, over Taiwan
I've only seen it in my dreams boiling over from a time I'll never do


Light river, rambling solidarity
Everywhere I go, it's the toughest town I've ever been through
Light river, in the arms of the night
For once I wanna do what I said I was gonna do



The Entire City
From the top of the incline
Where I helped myself and I trusted myself

For the last time
If I can't help myself, darlin' who will?
Who will?
If I can't trust myself, darlin' who will?

Who will?


You got out
Bruised and bowed
You can live
On the road


All strung out!
Bear no load
You can lift
Off the road
