Ain't there always
a back road?

Ain't there always
a long way there?

With you
riding shotgun,
I always wanna take it.

Music, or not,
or just listening
to the exhaust.

Let's take our time,
let's try to
get a little lost.

Yeah, let's take
the long way there.

Baring barren bear-like teeth,
is it a smile, or a grimace, indeed?
whether it's pain, excruciatingly,
or blissful joy, any range in-between,
a smile is a smile is a smile,
just show your teeth.

Because there's beauty above
and
beneath.

Pins and needles
are only skin-deep,
waking up from
a troubled sleep.

A sigh, a gasp,
terrible dreams,
a simple smile
can change
everything.
