Good As Gone

I’m in my car

Going 80 on a 50 road

It’s just me alone, tonight

All my friends are dressed

In their finest clothes

I’m in a T-shirt though, tonight

Rehearse the words

Say them over and over in my head

That I don’t care

Driving fast no destination

But in my imagination

I’m over there

They’re all headed to the ball

But I’m headed anywhere

Yeah, I’m on my own

But I’m better off without their stares

Watch me hit 100

As the world comes swinging

I’m ready for the fall

For the showdown

Place your bets

Dancing all alone

Just the road and my silhouette

Windows down on the highway

My favorite song singing

I’m moving along

All my cares

As good as gone

My hands dance with the wind

Just like in the movies

All the lights are green tonight

Nothing but open road

Right in front of me

Yeah I’m feeling free tonight

Forcing smiles they’ve finessed

And their dresses are all a mess

How can they take it?

I’d rather go a million miles

Than to ever fake a smile

Or be complacent

They’re all headed to the ball

But I’m headed anywhere

Yeah, I’m on my own

But I’m better off without their stares

Watch me hit 100

As the world comes swinging

I’m ready for the fall

For the showdown

Place your bets

Dancing all alone

Just the road and my silhouette

Windows down on the highway

My favorite song singing

I’m moving along

All my cares

As good as gone
