about

this one sums up my twenties, and hopefully will sum up the rest of my life.

lyrics

A border state and a freeway light.
I don't know where I'll be sleeping tonight.
Probably driving more.
Radio towers dot the land.
Satellites and the AM band:
this is my dream.
The road and the wheels scream, the wheels scream:

"You and me were meant to be
and I know I won't let you go
without a fight, alright?
I just know I won't let you go."

A mountain range and a field of grass,
The desert plains and a river pass.
This is it. The southwest
landscape is my future home,
And cross these plains, baby
I will roam.
This is my land.
I won't forget when it spoke, I mean it said:

"You and me were meant to be
and I know I won't let you go
without a fight, alright?
I just know I won't let you go."

I met a girl on the internet.
We had a date at the laundromat.
Like dirty clothes, I changed and
I couldn't wait to give her a ring.
Begrudgingly had a small wedding.
This is the dream.
A long road, my heart screams and I scream:

"You and me were meant to be
and I know I won't let you go
without a fight, alright?
I just know I won't let you go."
