lyrics

THE ROAD

Riding down the road
Lampposts rolling by
Got my foot right to the floor
But I just can’t seem to fly.
I’ve been pushing this machine
As fast as it will go
But when you’re going nowhere special
You kinda hate to go nowhere slow.

People pointing
Telling me where to turn
Keep following other people’s paths
But I just can’t seem to learn.
Looking for directions
Can’t seem to find my way
Teachers and gurus
Keep leading me astray.

Endless highways
So many different trails
Getting kinda tired
Feeling kinda frail
Lonely road
So many curves and bends
No matter how many miles I go
Can’t seem to find the end.

Losing sight of my dream
Don’t know what’s ahead
All I see is blackness
My future’s looking dead
Too dangerous to stop
Don’t dare to turn around
So I just keep pushing harder
Afraid to slow down.
