Tonopah from Warp & Woof by Warp & Woof

We left the promised land in search of inner peace
We never found it, but we lost a lot of sleep
In my reflection, I see bags under my eyes
But you swear it’s just a trick, you pump me full of lies
So I drive to Tonopah, I need a place to hide
You drive to Fiddletown, you’ve got a funny side

We left perdition on a quest for Greater Truth
We never found it, but you got some cool tattoos
In two directions, we set out with no supplies
But you swear it’s just for kicks, I’m always so uptight
‘Cause this is the crater that was left by Trinity
And this is the plaza where they blew up Kennedy

And if you shut your mouth
If you try to listen
If you plot it out
If you pay attention
Then you can draw the lines
You can see the fiction
You can hear The Hum
of The Big Connection

But I don’t want to push if you don’t want to see
And who could blame you now?
Jesus, have a look at me...

We took the back roads, and we slept out in the dark
Took turns at driving, we were too afraid to park
With some reflection, I guess that's where our love died
To be frank, geography was never on our side
This is the secret base where flying saucers fly
But I know you don't care, we've got bigger fish to fry
'cause I'm just a cancer on your optimistic mind
And you're not the answer to my fatalistic whine

But if you shut your mouth
If you try to listen
If you plot it out
If you pay attention
Then you can draw the lines
You can see the fiction
You can hear The Hum
of The Big Connection
