Lyrics
PRODUCTION
Land is laid
With tracks of Iron
Mask over the faith
We have things to do
Dreams to plan
So the doing of things, it must be done
Wear the mind like fingers to the bone
There's lofty needs still unaccomplished
Struggle that we may be attending
To life's many duties we've yet to inspire
Land's own earth, she bares herself
Revealing open wounds but not to cry
She concentrates, on what remains
Being, life in still, and peace ...
Run the belly of the beast that rides this land
Scratching through the cold morning sky
Inspired by man reckless ability to rape his surroundings, for making them into something to making something more
And definitely making too much noise to be going from one place to the other
Production cars with letter codes
They ride this steel, for they provide
What was thought to be the sole purpose
These rails ever came to need to be
A resource that was needed make dreams REAL
Disrailment, it is tollerated to some degree
Any young man would be a fool, to think he could simply just survive
But the company man he doesn't reach for the brakes
No No No, No No No No No -
He hits the throttle hard
Mightly young engineer
Hit the throttle hard
And ride on into that setting sun
Must leave these peaceful flowered fields, is like seasonal love finding a bitter dieing wind
What you seek stands stoned on the horizon - it's a bitter winter ridge running to the sky forever
And it's a winter grade ahead
So hit that throttle hard
Ride on into that setting sun
Hit the throttle hard
And ride on into that good night
Good night
Land is laid with tracks of iron
Mask over the faith
We have things to do dreams to plan
So the doing of things, in this wild-flowered field of dreams the Earth she's grown tired she thinks these things of this man they must be stopped right now!
Run the belly of the beast that rides this land
Scratching through the cold morning sky
