Take The Road

Way too many years I was sitting in the box
Never got to play always eager when I watch
You as free as can be still restricted to a clock
Just a rag doll twitching on a cot
How your brain cast an image in the mind who you are
Steady driven rarely getting very far
Light in the distance but you're sitting in the dark
All this tension really missing is a spark
Held up to the light do you shine as bright
When the stars don't align at night
Think about the mission in the bars I write
Only picking out the bars I like
It's all an illusion the movement of clouds in the skies
All it revolves around in our eyes
You a slave to the sights and the sounds in your mind
And we all still drowning in time

Trying to find a reason
Or something I can believe in
No such thing as getting even
If your plan is trading blows
Wind in your hair and the engine speeding
It's like the closest thing to freedom
When the path ahead is decent
Mash the Gas and take the road

Swiitching up my gears no fear of the abyss
Staring in the void for the meaning I miss
We restricted to the ground justify that we exist
One of many names running down on a list
Never really blink think we are stuff of the stars
Somehow we always want to be stars
A timespan longer than a hundred of ours
Some assumptions never come very far
Life fleeting heart beating what you call insight
Tell yourself that it's all alright
Heard a mission is regarded hype
Guess it's up to who you call at night
Couldn't see myself in the books written ages ago
Wisdom isn't measured in others' pages and notes
Like a monster in the chamber my anger at rope
Watch your feet we came from below

Can't even cry because my ducts dried up
Can't give a fuck cause the fucks got low
Laugh all the time rather bust my gut
Then sulk in the pen cause of funds come slow
Think like a rich man when the bank just got robbed
Hunker down man the trust must grow
Can't put my faith in a lot from the place
I can see man most times man I just don't know
Twist in existence all the shit you could miss hence
Life is a bitch if it's full she's a big bitch
You can die in an instant come alive through your senses
Your thoughts getting intense don't end up in intensive
All the walls you put up for defenses
Them supplies get expensive
