lyrics

Open Road (Adapted from "Song of the Open Road" by Walt Whitman)

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose.
Henceforth I ask not good-fortune, I myself am good-fortune,

I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Done with indoor complaints,
Strong and content I travel the, I travel the open road.

The earth is,
I said that the earth, that is sufficient,

(Still here I carry my old delicious burdens,
I carry them, men and women, wherever I go,
I swear it is impossible for me to get rid of them,
I am fill’d with them, and I will fill them in return).

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose.
Henceforth I ask not good-fortune,

I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Done with indoor complaints,
Strong, healthy and free I take to the, I travel the open road.

The earth is,
I said that the earth, that is sufficient,

I do not want constellations any nearer,
I know they are very well where they are,
I know they suffice for those who belong to them.

Beyond Dust and Bones
by OCO

"The amount of diverse mystical references and the mix of sounds is so particular that it won’t fit onto a genre, nor will it be identified with a specific geography". MY NOISY TWINS
