Keep one eye on the road

The other one fixed on the one you hold

The windshield is bombarded by rain

I can only see black and yellow in my brain

As the colors of containers in a dark distance

Flare up in my face like sparks in my pistons

Fuel gage almost pointing at empty

Evidently the high speed has taken a toll

Break and roll very gently down to the waterfront

Maybe ten feet away

My 500 stallions have sent me to stay for a purpose

To observe just a five minute silence

A break from the circus of everyday humdrum

And the effect is like a shock from a stun gun

Some run far, some run fast to return soon

The thought of going everpresent as it burns true

A part of me is always close to the harbor

Sailing with the ghost of my grandfather

CHORUS

Keys in the ignition, headlights rising

Playing with the rain, but the rhythm is random

I sit in abandon with a hand on the wheel

But I'm still unable to leave

Dazed by the slow moving mass of the cranes

Sedated by the memories i only remember to forget

Like a radio signal in a flash

And at last I am cleansed out

If you could see what I see, if you could be in my sleep

If you found me, I'd be lost

No cost is greater than to let go with a past like yours

It doesn't make sense how nothing makes sense now

Stand still, stand still

But the more I command it, the more I know

Leaving is nothing but an act of will

And I feel my diverging path

Has taken me as far as I have to go

Fathers become sons, tables turned

I know that I have been unaware, unconcerned

Now haunted by the thought, I grab the keys

Step outside and see purple

On the road, out on the seas

We'll be reunited within the red circle

CHORUS

Leave a light on, I'll arrive on time this time and try to stay

Leave a light on if the night's too dark, the spark has gone away

Far or near, tomorrow's here

Follow me, and I know the road is clear

What you need now is not me

How could I breathe out all this fear?
