Fearful of the future Time warp to 20 years later What is to show of this departure? Blinded by what is to come Folded into a blanket My true skin revealed No friends, only a screen to cry to When they tell you of the journey They leave out the part of it being lonely With nothing but your toes missing the feeling To make you want to move Anxiety about stepping outside in the wide eyed new age Wanting every bit of it to end Punch what knowledge they know straight through their face Only to see that the knowledge you know really isn’t worth anything To know what was said and drown out the headache Tough in a sense Come take a drive Open seat available for you Grin and bear the turns Boulevards and railroads never looked so good Once passed Hug the corner Race the light Beat the reflection Look in no direction Cut through the lines They define nothing Only within the finer things You see Things flash by Gone before you know it

THE FAST LANE
Fearful of the future Time warp to 20 years later What is to show of this departure? Blinded by what is to come Folded into a blanket My true skin revealed No friends, only a screen to cry to When they tell you of the journey They leave out the part of it being lonely With nothing but your toes missing the feeling To make you want to move Anxiety about stepping outside in the wide eyed new age Wanting every bit of it to end Punch what knowledge they know straight through their face Only to see that the knowledge you know really isn’t worth anything To know what was said and drown out the headache Tough in a sense Come take a drive Open seat available for you Grin and bear the turns Boulevards and railroads never looked so good Once passed Hug the corner Race the light Beat the reflection Look in no direction Cut through the lines They define nothing Only within the finer things You see Things flash by Gone before you know it
