about

Oil is a dirty business, but it also the energy that has given us a big chunk of freedom. This is a song about mobility and freedom in the era of the dark fossil fuels.

lyrics

fossil fuels, hot tires
asphalt dazzle, on a summer day
pine trees, gravel roads
rain that clatters on the window frames

black liquid
takes you anywhere

the winding roads, random stops
you can go wherever you want
absolute autonomy
on the empty highway

black liquid
takes you anywhere
freedom fuel
for a trip to nowhere
