Imaginary Wheels

Everywhere I go,

Can't help but look below,

Thousands of other,

Boxes on wheels,

People dressed up in steel,

Tireless, precise

Aerodynamic lives,

Success is in getting to fly,

To somewhere you used to drive,

We speed past the props,

The bars and shops,

So easy to pretend,

The world will never end,

Although, you never know,

Drive, Rolling on imaginary wheels,

Flying through the air,

You never feel the road,

You used to know,

The signs too small to read,

Illegal not to speed,

Don't do your napping at home,

Sleep when you're on the go,

I speed past the spots,

I used to stop,

And hang out with my friends,

While memories contend with steel,

For which is real,

Drive, Rolling on imaginary wheels,

Flying through the air,

You never feel the road,

you used to know,

The bumps and turns,

the stop and go,

The boredom as the freeway slows,

Three, Two, One,

Drive, Rolling on imaginary wheels,

Flying through the air you never feel,

So easy to pretend it's real,

The bumps and turns,

The stop and go,

The boxes filled with dreams below,

The boredom when the freeway slows
