Strange it seems I would've given it all up For making endless Highway memories.
Strange it seems How quickly My brothers Became my enemies. Where is the bullet? Put the gold over my eyes And make me, a memory. Set me free.
From trance to trance I'd give it all soar To waste away And nothing more.
So long as we're in it together again.
I see that wasn't the plan for me. A vessel with a vagrant heart But wooden feet with roots. Rip me from the ground, tear my legs apart. Cut me open. If I can't travel sea to shining sea, Burn me down, let this be the end of me.
I was a place to be called home. I was safe and secure. The darkness had other plans instead. Burrowing it's way inside my head. I can't be a slave to sickness till the day I'm dead. But that's what you'll all think to help yourselves sleep at night. Stars replaced by endless streetlights. That's what you tell yourself, While I'm still burning out, loud and bright.
