Lyrics
As I drive down this oh-so-familiar road My mind consorts with shallow illusions Hands leaving the safety of the steering wheel 300 horses left to draw their own conclusions I can't stand another night where I "go-it-alone" Movies aren't as good with an empty seat by your side This cramping feeling in the bottom of my throat Is strangely the only companion I find (Chorus) Why do I feel so isolated? And what is the use for self-pity? Why are emotions so complicating? And their purposes still such a mystery? I hate the this loneliness that I commonly feel Reminds me of dramatic times in my life I've spent so much time on maturing, yet still I have to ask myself in the end just "Why?" So again, here I am, with but moments to spare While I swerve over the white stripes into Suicide lane I've abandoned my morals and wisdom I've shared And chosen to follow the path of the insane (Chorus) (Bridge) I can turn back, I know that I can. Just getting a grip Is what makes me a man. It's not worth the time Or the effort to die. I'll snap out of this And learn to value my life. I'll return to the habit of living my life I'll return to the habit of living my....of living my life. (Chorus) (Outro) (played over the chorus riff one last time with it fading out at the end) I see now just what's worth living for It's the things that are not on familiar roads They just might come my way tomorrow And if I were gone.....I'd never know
