"The High Wall / Carnival Country" lyrics

Son Volt Lyrics

"The High Wall / Carnival Country"

Finding the sane
From the pain in the story
If only these streets could talk
They'd tell of the triumphs and trials
And admissions
With outrunning the grey there's a cost
In this land just five hours time

Find some place musical
Find some place you know you're suited for
In this land just five hours time

Carnival Country of lasting impressions
Voices of the struggle in us all
Enduring deflections
Bridges to selfless
Aiming to clear the high wall
In this land just five hours time

Find some place musical
Find some place you know you're suited for
In this land just five hours time
