It happened fast, it's over quick

A little dust and the engine kicks

Did your hands drift down off the wheel?

A road owl hit your windshield

An eyelash or a little bit of sleep? time stands still

Just call it now and you're on your way (hey, hey hey, hey)

All the ashtrays, cities and the freeway drives

Broken casino and waterslide

Eighteen-wheeler, payback dice

Gravity pulls on the power line

Jet stream cuts the desert sky

This is a land could eat a man alive

Say you'd leave it all behind (hey, hey hey, hey)

There's a radio tower that's egging me on

Back to the place where you never belong

Where people thrive on their own contempt

Whatever meaning is long gone, spent

If you had to guess or make bet,

Would you place yourself inside of it?

The mountains yawn, the clouds let out a sigh

"Tricked again." let go, okay (hey, hey hey, hey, hey hey, hey)
