Distractions

I've got a quarter of a tank
Driving in the fast lane
While I'm listening to frank
Man, I love the escape (ah)
One thing you'll never understand
Until you drive at two am
Nowhere to go
And nothing planned
I'm feeling so alive
You know I'm never feeling better
Than I do when I'm free inside
I'm looking way up in the sky
Driving late at night
Yeah, cos it's good for my frame of mind

One night I'm sad
The next night I'm actin
Anything to distract me
From depressing things that happen
But I'm not always sad
You got it backwards
It's just the world is so messed up
And I can't help but feel I'm stranded
Always stuck in my mind
I need to forget some things around me
When I'm sitting at home
I need someone to come and grab me
And take me outside
Remind me what it means to feel happy
Negativity filling me up
Had enough of the backseat
I'm coming back to take control
Push down the pedal
Escape the darkness that's behind me
I've got to be able
To live free from all the lies
Find something special
Add some meaning to my life
And listen to my mental
I don't need distractions
If there's nothing to hide
Get out of the front seat
Now it's my turn to drive
I don't need distractions
If I have nothing to hide
Get out the drivers seat
This is my time to drive

I've got a barely empty tank
Driving in the fast lane
While I'm listening to frank
Man, I love the escape (ah)
One thing you'll never understand
Until you drive at three am
Nowhere to go
And nothing planned
I'm feeling so alive
You know I'm never feeling better
Than I do when I'm free inside
I'm looking way up in the sky
Driving late at night
Yeah, cos it's good for my frame of mind

Distractions so bitter-sweet
Forget the good and bad things
Trying to hide from the reality
Not think of where I'm standing
Sometimes I need reminders
So I know I don't forget a thing
And when I get back home
I don't know why, but I feel all the pain
I'm sick of my complaining
Complaining when it's raining
But I got to see a rainy day
To appreciate a sunny day
Go downhill to build momentum
When that hill goes up again
Going through that window
Spread my wings so I can fly away
