Highway Sanity

[Verse 1]
Miles blur
Lines smear into one long snake
Dirty cup
Same shirt
Different state
Clock’s wrong
Phone’s dead
I’m wide awake
Talking to the windshield
Just to hear something break
[Chorus]
Out on the road
And it’s eating my brain
Every white line spelling out my name
Can’t tell the days apart
They all sound the same
I’m holding the wheel just to stay
Just to stay
Just to stay fucking sane
[Verse 2]
Cheap gas
Fast food
Cold in the bag
Cracked glass
My face in the rearview sags
Voice mail
Mom says
“Call me back”
I swear I’m coming home
Then I drown in the map
[Pre-Chorus]
Who am I
In this motel mirror?
Eyes like static
Buzzing nearer
[Chorus]
Out on the road
And it’s eating my brain
Every white line spelling out my name
Can’t tell the days apart
They all sound the same
I’m holding the wheel just to stay
Just to stay
Just to stay fucking sane
[Bridge]
[Jarring halftime drop
Guitars chugging
Vocals unhinged]
No sleep
No stop (no stop!)
Tongue tastes like rust and rot
My thoughts
Crack like bugs on the glass (ugh!)
If I don’t get off this ride
I’ll leave what’s left of me
On the center line
[Chorus]
Out on the road
And it’s eating my brain
Every white line spelling out my name
Can’t tell the days apart
They all sound the same
I’m holding the wheel just to stay
Just to stay
Just to stay fucking sane (hey!)
[Outro]
[Band hits on the title line
Final scream]
Just to stay
Fucking sane
