Taking Back Roads

We take directions for faces we don`t see

The world is beneath us and we both know this isn`t forever

So we keep our guards up

There`s noone to trust here, so we move on

This is a lesson, I`ll take the interstate

We both know there`s a simpler state of mind, that waits for us in time

This is the last time I`ll make the same mistake

Which way`s back?

I`ve been miles without the sign that waits for us in time

The tables are turning but no one is listening, and if we are smart then we`ll move fast

Cause we are all driving, we`re all moving quickly

We`re trying to slow down before things go too far

This is the last time I`ll take the interstate

We both know there`s a simpler state of mind, that waits for us in time

This is the last time I`ll make the same mistake

Which way's back?

I`ve been miles without the sign that waits for us in time

Taking back roads, to where God only knows

We take our time and get there when we can

We`re taking back roads, to where God only knows

Write this down so we don`t forget

And this is the last time I`ll take the interstate

And we both know there`s a simpler state of mind, in time

And this is the last time I`ll make the same mistake

Which way's back?

I`ve been miles without the sign that waits for us in time
