look out I feel the waves
rough nights but the calmest days
stuck here til the swell it fades
burnt out, joint burn till its cleared away 
in thought, ya Im lost again
round and round no it never ends
the hard road
is when the freeway ends 

knowing that your heart holds
strings that I can’t see
flying up so high though
I feel them guiding me
believe it cause my heart knows
when its beating up my spine
find yourself
and lose my mind

you and me we let it be
the things I want
the things you need
hard pressed left it on the outside 
now we hide and
words I know been there before
to stay or leave how is one to know love
feel it in my bones
I’m on my own

set out, left to find my way
right road, eatin forks all day 
black white all i see is grey 
white light, black road leads you to the grave hey
some things we can never know 
splitting hairs means there’s 
two ways to go babe
and The root is hard to know

how is it these things roll
round and round my mind
push it up the hill dear
rolls down the other side
feeling like I’m stuck though
get out of my head
knowing that all lights burn  
bright until their dead

you and me we let it be
the things I want
the things you need
hard pressed left it on the outside
now we hide and
words I know been there before
to stay or leave, how is one to know love
feel it in my bones
I’m on my own

you and me we let it be
the things I want the things you need
hard pressed left me it on the outside
now I hide
words I know been there before
to stay or leave, it keeps me wanting more love
how is one to know
I’m on my own
