American Highway |
She is pressing foot to pedal |
She is zooming straight away |
She is swimming in the jukebox |
Of the screaming, driving day |
She’s about the age of Mary |
When she had her wonderboy |
She’s an alcohol enthusiast |
Whose dad is unemployed |
She is wrapped around the steering wheel |
She is focused on her goal |
She is pulling out the vomit |
From the bottom of my soul |
I can’t tell if I see sunshine |
Or only the city’s glow |
I catch the wind in jelly jars |
To listen to it blow |
I’m so cautious I get nauseous |
As my highway stretches out |
My little pupils dilate |
In the shadow of a doubt |
I see billboards, I see wagons |
And I see she’s gone to sleep |
The gap to faith is tiny |
But I can’t begin to leap |
We are sick and we are injured |
Terrible and torn in half |
We are driving, we are trading in |
A whimper for a laugh |
We are tuneless, we are toneless |
Our speedometer sings |
We are stained, we are Starbucks coffe |
We are jacks and queens and kings |
We have but one navigator |
And a single one to drive |
We are tending to pretend |
We’re at the endings of our lives |
