I Am The Highway
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Pearls and swine bereft of me
Long and weary my road has been
I was lost in the cities, alone in the hills
No sorrow or pity for leaving, I feel
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky
Friends and liars don't wait for me
'Cause I'll get on all by myself
I put millions of miles under my heels
And still too close to you I feel
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon, I am the night, night
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highwa
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon, I am night, night, night
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky
