lyrics

Too much pressure on these highways
Downtown streets got me less worried
The open roads are mine for the keeping
But every day, I ask “what is it that I’m seeking?”

These highways are paths beyond
The ever-present promise of suburban humdrum
They lead to infinity, return from infinity
And after my trips I show more affinity

As I stare out into the sunset,
I ask Fiona if she can take my hand
And she did and we felt no consequence
And we tiptoed into this brand new land

Too much pressure keepin’ up with demand
By the time it’s all over I become Caliban
A wild pawn useful for insignificant things
And the ones I haven’t got they’ve bumped down to dreams

These highways lead to downtown avenues
Cut my losses and I can’t really follow through
These highways, they end in the tunnels
And once I’m stuck inside, we might as well go into our fun Hell

As I stare out into the sunset,
I ask Fiona if she can take my hand
And she did and we felt no consequence
And we tiptoed into this brand new land

These highways, they’re my guiding light
They’re my Star of Bethlehem, cuts through the night
They’re the beacon of hope, they’re my quiet revenge
They’re the things that get me through so much of my stress
