Alone on the highway
I honk my horn
and laugh uncontrollably
at the dark
I beat back the song that I first wrote
I make up whole new words
for the worlds that i've dreamed up
I'm just punching
holes in the sky
with my eager eyes
that have somehow managed to stay wide
as I stare on through
these imaginary holes
I smile 'cause I see you!
The longer that we live
more complex our juggling act becomes
Is this really me?
I have to laugh
There's a jungle out there
and you can try to hide
but the howling heard at night
is in the back of all our minds
isn't it?
we've been taught that the wild
is where the devil pulls his strings
but the disconnect is false
and the wilds never end
so a few of us find love
or even one just makes it through
it's a miracle to me!
I open up my eyes
every day
in a whole new way
because you told me:
"Everyday's Important"
Now I live my life
as if it were all made up
because that's sometimes how it feels
when I think of where I come from
I think of where i'm going and
I think of what I want
and I think about your face
staring at me through these holes
in my future I will falter
I'll grow lost upon my way
but I have a blurry dream
I'm gonna follow it!
