This Road Trip Will Numb Me

This road trip will numb me I’ll lay back and close my eyes for the third time Watch the sunset for the fifth I don’t know how long we’ve been driving Each day just kind of runs into the next All I know is that I’ve seen five sunsets since we left Or was it the sunrise? I’ll let the car ride drive me into space Into oblivion As I fight the sickness from pulling me back to reality It’s a dead dream So I watch you drive for a while Each hand resting at the 10 and the 2 Making turns and taking exit ramps It’s like you know each route like the back of your hand We only stop once To stretch out and to breathe some fresh air Before we make our way back to the stuffy car And I close my eyes To only dream of a destination we can call home
