To Paraphrase
This road is my life
Speeding through the night
I have been to these places
For barely a moment
Wide awake
Sometimes sleeping
Sometimes watching
Sometimes dreaming
Through stroby towns
Too fast to know their names
Too fast to know if I came or will come again
Sleeping towns joined together
By the Parallel lines
Parallel lives
You and I
We’re movie-rich
We’re reflected in the window
The dark night’s black mirror glass
Distant lights from the wrong side of the tracks
Christmas lights
Go by in the houses
Anonymous windows
Anonymous rooms of
Anonymous souls
So take my hand
Squeeze it tight
Make some light
In the darkness
I’m glad you came on this trip
Don’t lose your grip
This road is my life
Travel with me
And we’ll see..

and i wish that i could give you
somethin in return
for all the precious time you wasted on the tears ill never earn
…for reachin out to help me cross those bridges i have burned
