Look at me, so damaged and destroyed

With this world's plans and its ploys to take me out

I'm on a highway directly to the moon

With no plans on stopping soon

I'm leaving town.

Them christian's are talking so often of coffins

No heavens could top this moment now.

My foot out the window and my flask halfway full

I may have to pull over soon

I can't afford a motel, but the floorboards will work well

And I'll sleep there til tomorrow afternoon

And I'll get on the road again, had another chance at fittin' in

Fittin' in to kids like me is dyin'

And I know when I'm with you

After one shot or 22 and a cigarette

I feel like flying I'm flyin'.

But them christian's are talking so often of coffins

No heavens could top this moment now

I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud

You must trek through some dark and troubled grounds

So may we all

Just once or twice

Once in this life, just look around

Usually I'm a wreck

But the hard times were just a step

To get where I am on this ninth cloud.

We're singing, feeling good again

Just passed 304 am

And I'm talking like the sun will never rise

But the sun will crest the trees and bring this devil to his knees

As it outlines the silver in these skies.

Them christian's are talking so often of coffins

No heavens could top this moment now

I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud

You must trek through some dark and troubled grounds

So may we all

Just once or twice

Once in this life, just look around

Usually I'm a wreck

But the hard times were just a step

To get where I am on this ninth cloud.
