Interstate Road

lyrics

It's 19 o'clock on the interstate road
And I'm staring through walls and wishing for home,
As the white lines drive white noise through my suffering soul
And the radio connects with the alcohol,
And I hope you're alive.

As the sky burns to dawn, many hours have passed,
And I'm still searching the back of my mind for the last
Insult you paid me, or mistake that you made me
And I don't need you, and I know you'd agree,
But still I hope you're alive.

Since I last saw you, I'm hurting
And since I last hurt you I'm sore
But under my smile as I'm driving miles,
It's all faded to black and white now.

The people in the city are vultures, I write
And each morning I wake with their shadows in the sky
I feel them waiting for my bones to tire
That's when they'll swoop down, and I'll close my eyes
And I'll hope that you're fine.

Since I last saw you, I'm hurting
And since I last hurt you, I'm sore
But beneath my smile as I'm driving miles
It's all faded to black and white now.

Since I last saw you, I'm hurting
And since I last hurt you, I'm sore
But beneath my smile as I'm driving miles
It's all faded to black and white now.

It's 0700 on the interstate road
And my legs have got cramps and I can't feel my toes
But still I keep driving, I can't stop til I know
Why when I never called you, you never picked up the phone.
And I hope you're alive.
