Tigerscout - Never Knows Best
текст песни

This is where the rubber meets the road
White knuckles, same shade of grey
The dull hum of leaving
And I've ever needed so much saving
Arms outstretched, I can barely feel you on my fingertips
And I hope that this is far enough
Every single person in my life has let me down
But I guess they were only returning the favor

Barriers of steel, others less concrete
There's glass between us, static in my ears

All things blurred
Retracing every step on these well worn paths
The worst kind of pacing
So much time spent staring at the reflections of things
How many hours lost?
Two rights don't make it right
Every person has the capacity to say beautiful things
To make beautiful things
Yet there's nothing in my mouth but the stale taste of my own tongue
Syllables rotting in my gums
And I break everything I touch
The leaves are changing, but this decay's not that beautiful
I've come to hate the smell of all things familiar
The landmarks of half-forgotten failures
Many miles traveled with no distance gained
A lifetime of moving on
But I'm just not that strong
And I need more peace than I let on
The low fuel light's been glowing like an ember
Maybe It'll burst into flames
Maybe someday!

And maybe I'll go up with it
Sacrifice to survive
But oh! What it would be like to thrive!
Wipe the dust from my eyes
These bags can't be unpacked
Hawk and dove
Always flinching
"Slow and steady wins the race"
Well, this is death by inches
So many dead deer, and I'm left here
Circling, like some kind of terrible vulture
These houses still remain
Now mostly empty
Now mostly stripped of their memories
These streets a harsh reminder
The phenomenon of craving
Can't stand all this waiting

Sit and take it
Grin and bear it
I can't believe I saved my life for this
Not locked in, yet here I stay
"Maybe I'll break this circuit one day"
There's no redemption quite like an empty car and an open road
And I can feel myself wanting to leave again
My life for yellow lines
