Burden of Proof Lyrics by Peter Oren

Anthropocene

2017

A rest stop night under parking lot lights
Somewhere in Missouri
This truck-bed shell ain’t home but hell
Some nights it can be cozy
I came to at half-past two
To a diesel engine’s roar
It was hard to sleep in the humidity and heat
So I got up and drove some more
And where I’m coming from is a full tank of gas away
I always go ‘cause I ain't learned to stay
More billboard signs tout God’s design
Dial 855-FOR-TRUTH
Little do they know they got nothing to show
To lift the burden of proof
They turn bucket seats on this highway to pews
They gotta have people to tell what to do
Country radio all rhymеs with Bud Light and Chevrolet
The Biblе Belt’s talking to itself all night on the FM waves
A land hypnotized by highway lines
There are crosses along the flat
They look to me like blades unsheathed
And stabbed into a back
