Road to Nowhere

Driving down a paved road
Wave to the people passing
Taking in the sights
[there’s] so much to see
Buildings everywhere
Stretching the horizon
At night they glow
It’s hard to breathe. So hard to breathe

So I’m taking that road to nowhere, but this can’t be all I want to be
One in a million odds we’ll meet again
Just remember me

Driving down a dirt road
Wave to the kinfolk
Taking in the sights
[there’s] not much to see
When the sun shines
I will recognize
The sweetness that I used to feel
In your lying eyes

And I’m on this road in the middle of nowhere, but this can’t be all I want to be
One in a million, shining stars in the sky
Could you be happy just getting by?

Hear the thunder, feel the rain drops falling on my head
Coming down in buckets and filling me with lead

And I take that road to nowhere when I’m alone at night and it’s hard to breathe
One million, shining stars in the sky
Could you be happy just getting by?
I’m happy right where I am, trying to get by. I’m getting by
