Wide Open Road

Well the drums rolled off in my forehead
and the guns went off in my chest
Remember carrying the baby just for you
Crying in the wilderness
I lost track of my friends, I lost my kin
I cut them off as limbs
I drove out over the flatlands
hunting down you and him
The sky was big and empty
My chest filled to explode
I yelled my insides out at the sun
At the wide open road
it's a wide open road, it's a wide open road
How do you think it feels
sleeping by yourself?
when the one you love, the one you love
is with someone else
Then it's a wide open road
It's a wide open road
And now you can go any place
that you ever wanted to go
I wake up in the morning
thinking I'm still by your side
I reach out just to touch you
then I realise
It's a wide open road
It's a wide open road
