This sign on the road sets me still ‘fore I go Tells me to glance at the map just once more Tells me to look in the rearview mirror Before I go The glass wall before me refuses to break Instead it reflects what I left and it shows The path, when it cracks, I’ll be able to take But it won’t The landscape stretches as far as the eye Can see the view of the future But the cliff at my feet will just lead me Nowhere

Held Back
This sign on the road sets me still ‘fore I go Tells me to glance at the map just once more Tells me to look in the rearview mirror Before I go The glass wall before me refuses to break Instead it reflects what I left and it shows The path, when it cracks, I’ll be able to take But it won’t The landscape stretches as far as the eye Can see the view of the future But the cliff at my feet will just lead me Nowhere
