Ride Out

From the sword of the crusader to the missionary spin

From the atom of creation to the secrets deep within

Illusions and delusions lead us where we shouldn't go

Time to disconnect from clutter, time to hit the road

Ride out, to a bold new horizon

Where the sun may be shining

Or a place you've never seen

Ride out, lift your soul and your spirit

Take a chance and get near it

Everybody needs a dream

Is the media for real, do we fake or do we feel

Do we base all our appeal on a model or a myth

It's a market correction, it's addiction, resurrection

It's the last thing you mention before you knock it stiff

Ride out, where the hills meet the valleys

Far from campaigns and rallies

And the things we do for oil

Ride out, mix the real and imagined

With the lost and abandoned

And bring it to a boil

It takes your breath away

The way we pay and pay and pay and pay

You can take it to the masses, you can run it up a pole

You can conquer all resistance and believe you're in control

But the world will be watching there's a crack in every lie

When it opens like a chasm you can kiss it all goodbye

Ride out, to the high copper canyons

Past the shacks and the mansions

Where the rivers never end

Ride out, past the peaks and the mesas

To the wide open spaces

You may never see again

Ride out, to a brand new horizon

Where the sun may be shining

Or a place you've never seen

Ride out, lift your soul and your spirit

Take a chance and get near it

Everybody needs a dream

Ride out, (Yeah, yeah)

Ride out, (Ride out)

Ride out

Ride out

(Kiss it all goodbye)
