Lines On The Road

I'm hypnotized by the lines rushing by on the road
Measuring the time in songs, feeling the highway below
Not worried about figuring out my life
No one seems to make it out alive
I'm just seeing how long I can survive

Well the news reports hell, 'cause that's what sells on the tv
I tuned it all out long ago, yeah it wasn't fooling me
It's the same sad story told a different way
To fill time between the commercials they play
I'd rather be hypnotized by the lines rushing by on the highway

Living on the road, to get away from it all
Hoping we're not too far gone
Keeping my distance from the parts of the world that don't belong
When I'm hypnotized by the lines on the road and keeping time in songs

People got something to share
But I just don't care what they're thinking
Their ideas are bad, or even worse, depends on what they're drinking
They'll tell you how to live but they don't have a clue
Say that they know better than you
Say that life's so short when it's the longest thing we ever do

So I'm living on the road, to get away from it all
Hoping we're not too far gone
Keeping my distance from the parts of the world that don't belong
When I'm hypnotized by the lines on the road and keeping time in songs

Well the days don't last so the world goes fast asleep
The cars drain off the road until it's just the highway and me
I watch the lined open road as I drive
Wonder where I'm gonna arrive
Not worried about figuring out my life
No one seems to make it out alive
I'm still seeing how long I can survive
