TWO SONS

Driving all night sounded right

At the time

I feel accomplished

But why are these all nighters

Always preceded by exhaustion?

Yesterday I worked so hard then

Found myself brokenhearted

Then found myself elated

Caught in some combustion

I just want to pull over and sleep

But "two sons" an hour away

I just wanted to go but

Now all I want is to stay

Just want to get there

See things go my way

Let the terrorists

Terrorize

I cannot even empathize

With their lives

It's their lies

Trying to ruin me

But I'm too tired

To even care

My head is spinning

My mind was racing

But now I'm stuck in first gear

Second wind came and went

That was too long ago

Third wind was spent

Over 12 hours ago

Now I just cruise at 62

Tucson - exactly 60 miles

And all this while

Been thinking of you

Getting all twitchy

This road just keeps going

Trucks pass me

Like I'm out of gasoline

Tucson

Warm blanket

Wrap yourself around me

Your sky is boundless

Your borders blend with the horizon

I'm fantasizing too much

To drive this truck

Waking dreams

I'm losing touch
