3 a.m. don't feel romantic, just condemned To a life like an abandoned epic poem Kids in cars cling to a sliver of the promise Underdogs with the weariest of hope They curse town limits and the locked gates in their mind Lament, repent for all the things they're not Not quite tougher than those kids from down the road No saviors, pioneers or astronauts They just grow older with their dreaming To break a bold and brand new west If not a lion or a brave, babe At least a good heart and a quest To wake one morning to a red sky up above Dark clouds rising and you're out there on your own To face the madness and the fury of the storm Gone too far from shore to turn for home Beyond the boundaries and enlightened by pursuit With just you head, your hands and heart to hold you through To step just once against the meanest of conditions And live or die by what you were born to do But they say that hammer aint for you kid It's too late to live or think like that People just don't talk that way no more And anyway there aint no new west left The big bad future talks of struggles, cracks its knuckles I got all I've ever known behind my heels I need something like an answer or a victory To know not just what it is but how it feels So to the well and to the wheels and to the west Take my hard luck hope headlong to the promised land Hurl myself against the madness and the fury Live or die just like some ancient kinda man
