Mirage Lyrics

The highway shows me the one that I might

Have in my arms if I don't turn back tonight

If I don't get into bed beside my wife

But drive away instead to take control of my life

That restless devil of a road sings of love at first sight

And all the women I could have if I gave up on my wife

And my hands shake on the wheel as I pull off to the side

While my mind steps on the gas and drives off into the night

Till I'm lost again in my dreams within

Of all I could have if only it had been

And all I have becomes worthless when

My dreams destroy me from within

I wake up in the morning still beside my wife

But I blame her for the ways I feel unsatisfied with life

As if she is the cause for all the thoughts in my head

Or how I burn like I'm in hell after I take them all to bed

Well Hell is just the place that we all have to live

When we've taken all we had, and have nothing left to give

If I always walk away when I'm afraid to die

I'll die a man who ran from every chance to be alive

Till I'm lost again in my dreams within

Of all I could have if only it had been

And all I have becomes worthless when

My dreams destroy me

From within

From within

And all those lies that I dreamt up

Take all the good that could fill my cup

And they pour it out onto the ground

And it disappears never to be found

Why should I die just to be

Buried and bound for Hell
