about

This is one of the only songs on the album to prominently feature a time signature change (the outro is in 5/4).

Lyrically, this is a fun story about enjoying nature, until it goes wrong. Subtext: keep going, do your best.

lyrics

In search of quietude
where the jagged earth extrudes
Lofty bends and ancient trees
dancing gently in the breeze

Creatures alive with routine
Insects are chittering
A spring flows into a creek
Smallest waterfall I've seen

Inhale the mountain air
as the wind blows through my hair
A pathway made of stones
Let’s see where this goes

Though men have tried to tame
Mother nature long reclaimed this place

Running short on day
Bones and muscles ache
Unprepared but resolute
Find the route amidst the roots

The animals are growing still
Warm air gives way to chill
A crash resounds ahead
and echoes with dread

Inhale the mountain air
as the wind blows through my hair
A pathway made of stones
Let’s see where this goes

Unprepared
out of time
The thunderstorm
has arrived

Have to pick up the pace
Must find somewhere that's safe
Have to pick up the pace
Won't be found in this place
