Roadburner

They call me the roadburner
'Cause I'm driving day and night
People guess my name
But no one ever gets it right
Now the road becomes my mistress
How I love her sweet caress
She's the only one who listens
When I'm making sense

I never stop

Why did you just have to smoke me
Like I was your last cigarette
And the sad thing is I liked it
When you sucked me dry
I see a hobo eating roadkill
With a vulture by his side
Some say we live the life we earned
In former lives

I never stop

Why do you want to drag my body home?
Roadburner!

You're a viper, you're a vixen
You're a goddess, you're a saint
Through the desert, in my half-dreams
All of which are so unreal
Every second on the highway
Every mile, you make me sweat
I'm your ashtray, I'm your lapdog
And I cannot understand

Why do you want to drag my body home?
Roadburner!

Christ, I've finally found the fucking light
I con-fucking-fess that you were right
