Lyrics

I drove into the fading light Till there were no cars in sight Till there was no center stripe I drove Eyes fixed on the road ahead My mind convinced of what it's fed I could've turned around Instead I drove Just put yourself into my shoes And look at all the avenues All the don'ts and all the what you do's When everything she ever said Carved lazy circles in your head Some things are better left for dead And nothing you can say will change that I drove until I met the dawn The questions in my mind's eye formed My sense of space and time were gone without me I drove beneath the desert sun Just contemplating why we run The sign said U.S. highway thirty one When time allowed and time between Are seldom heard or rarely seen Imagine it's a time machine or something A splinter of the life we spend Together measured end to end Is equal to the time it takes To rock your little world and say I knew that Anxiety, my shotgun friend Would not twist or fade or bend Steered my mind from start to end I drove I drove I reached the point of no return My body ached, my spirit burned With all objections overturned I drove I drove until the passion died Then I popped the clutch and let her glide As all that stuff unglued inside of me Well you start to wonder what it is That turns the hand into a fist That dives into that little twist of fate A penny earned a penny wise Holy Jesus damn your eyes When conversation slowly dies It takes that long to realize She means it I drove into the fading night Till there were no stars in sight Till there was no center stripe Till there was no center stripe Till there was no center stripe I drove
