Afterhours Ride

Yeah... slowing down the pace tonight...

Got

nowhere

to be, nowhere to hide...

Just taking the long way...

Headlights cutting through the foggy mist Counting up the opportunities I missed

Tired of the speed,

tired of the rush Watching all the chaos settle into plush Too

much noise sitting inside my head

Thinking 'bout the words that I should’ve said

Cruising down the strip at a steady crawl

Watching shadows stretch across the highway wall

Tired of the damn weight pressing on my chest Trying to give

my weary mind a fucking rest

Rolling down the road real slow

Got nowhere left I need to go

It’s a hell of a night to be alone

Far away from everybody,

far from home

Yeah, taking my time,

watching wheels turn round

Lost inside the silence,

fading in the sound

Rolling down the road real slow

Finally letting all the tension go

Speedometer sitting on thirty-five

Just trying to remember what it feels to be alive They want

me to race, they want me to run While I’m looking for

the moon, waiting for the sun

Every single exit that I pass on by Reminds me of the

days when the limit was the sky It’s a bitch trying to

keep your head on straight When you're dealing with the pressure and

the damn heavy weight

No reason to rush,

no reason to sprint

Following the lines in the dark pavement print

Rolling down the road real slow

Got nowhere left I need to go

It’s a hell of a night to be alone

Far away from everybody,

far from home

Yeah, taking my time,

watching wheels turn round

Lost inside the silence,

fading in the sound

Rolling down the road real slow

Finally letting all the tension go

Just coasting... Taking it slow...

Yeah... (Rain sounds fade out into complete

silence)
