lyrics

After the fall we set sail
through the rain through the hail we passed
and never looked back

Over the hills we stole
cities dropped far down below my feet
my fingers start to bleed

And I don't know where we're supposed to go from here
without a map I don't know where to steer
I took the money and told him watch for traps
but I don't know how he found his way without a map

After our houses burned
the prodigal son finally returned
he finally returned

He's got scars across his back
and the stars in his eyes carry him out of the black
out of the black

And I don't know where we're supposed to go from here
it feels so different after all these years
I gave him money and told him watch for traps
but I don't know how he found his way without a map

The simple life gave your father a heart attack
foot on the gas and not turning back
anyone could tell you that the odds are stacked, yeah

but you shine brighter than the rest when we fade to black
and light up the sky like you struck a match
still don't know how you did it without a map, yeah

Still don't know how you did it without a map
