Roadside

Eight tired eyes stare squinting

through the early morning sunrise

Twenty-three more exits 'til we're far from home

Arguments and stupid fights

As stop signs turn to city lights

We try to conquer boredom with the radio

Then the lights go up and everything will change

They're screaming "Hey we want an anthem.

Something we can be proud of"

Sing it louder into the mic

Then kill the amps and say goodnight

On empty streets we're free to roam

The late nights and the long calls home

Familiar sounds across the line

Homesick smiles

As each day comes to an end

Perfect strangers become friends

It's safe to say I miss you more with every mile

They're screaming "Hey we want an anthem.

Something we can be proud of"

Sing it louder into the mic

We look to you to find the answers to our problems

So make it right

Then kill the amps and say goodnight

It's safe to say I miss you

Mile apart won't separate us

Time apart can't make this change
