No Roads

She said I can't take this no more.

Breathe, one might. But not from these lungs.

I've been fitting in the crease.

Every hour, a tightened leash.

So I say, so I say.

Punish me, the guilt and grief.

In stale bar light I can see,

You're holding a part of me.

My "welcome home"

To these wandering feet.

No road's gonna be missing

Gonna be missing, missing, missing

Its last bend before we're home.

Truth told, I wouldn't miss it,

Taking the corner wide on purpose,

But it's damn deep in my bones.

Sleep for now, things could veer off course.

Years come down from eyes to the earth.

Now I'm watching the TV

In a language I can't speak

'Cause well, hey, it's worth it

To be half a world away

And have not left this room all day

Or night

No road's gonna be missing

Gonna be missing, missing, missing

Its last bend before we're home.

Truth told, I wouldn't miss it,

Taking the corner wide on purpose,

But it's damn deep in my bones.

There's a rhythm to the stillness

That I can finally feel, so I say.

In stale bar light up until

The door's coming down for real, so I say.

So I say

So I say

So I say

So I say

So I say

So I say

So I say

No road's gonna be missing

Gonna be missing, missing, missing

Its last bend before we're home.

Truth told, I wouldn't miss it,

Taking the corner wide on purpose,

But it's damn deep in my bones.

And it's damn deep in my bones.

Yeah
