Twinn Connexion

In The West

So the West was won
But what about the Easterners
Lost but not forgotten
In their buildings and their noise

Always settling cause the money just came rolling in
But the Western wind was nowhere to be found
And the children grow up
Crying to be free

All the Easterners go down to the sea
On their floating marble mansions
So luxuriously free
But their sailing sons are weary
Of the riches and the rest
And they're peopling the highways
To the country in the West

Of all the places where a kid could be born
He's never asked
So he winds up in a place he cannot stand
For years his spirit falls
Til it dawns on him he can up and leave

But by then he's the territories man
And he's trapped there
Feeling very strange

All the Westerners are home on the range
And the rich ones have their oil wells
And the poor ones need a change

Like the cowboys getting restless
With the horses and the cows
So they're heading for an Eastern sky
At midnight on the town

Now you're a traveler
But its not the road that you love
It's the leaving the feelings behind
That belong to a sky full of rain
At the end of the road
Is the end to your pain

All the Easterners go down to the sea
On their floating marble mansions
So luxuriously free
But their sailing sons are weary
Of the riches and the rest
And they're peopling the highways to the country
In the West
