Speeding over this side of Texas
Never looked so good through
These dirty windows
These highways just scream by
And all these cities with their
Bright lights on
Take all your graveyard soil
And drown it in whiskey
The resolution's failing, falling back in time
Simple words and stuttered sounds and slurring rhymes
Drive through ghost towns with their death of expectations
Shuttered darkness, the lights long game
Take all your graveyard soil
And drown it in whiskey
Take all your toils and troubles
And drown them in distance and time
A bright scene, a borrowed moment
Stuck in time and waiting lonely
A dark night with driving rain
Can bow the best of us down
