wow, i cant believe no one has left a comment. i love this song. its my favorite from The Rising.

anyway, my idea is that he is searching for something, a relationship or something else, but he cant seem to find it. "Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time Searching through the dust, lookin' for a sign If there's a light up ahead, well brother I don't know", could mean that after searching and searching, he has finally found hope, "further up on the road"
