Highway of Life Lyrics

My insides corroded, a rusted out shell, a vehicle of sorrows every dent telling its tale

My headlights can't pierce through the fog of my own mind

This highway is relentless, no exit I can find

My will to live is the fuel that I burn, yet the tank is nearing empty, less at every turn

My wheels continue rolling, my engine rumbles on, but the road ahead seems endless, will I make it to the dawn

In the transmission of life, every gear that I shift, clutches at heartstrings that have now begun to rip

My heart's beating engine, stumbling in regret, no exit sign in sight, no way out just yet

Don't know how far I can go, on this lonesome weary road, this voyage of melancholy penned on asphalt's cold scroll

Driving in the darkness, searching for the dawn, the journey's not yet over, my engine's growling on

Echoing the rhythm of my heart's lonesome tone, shadows cast their pallor on a life in monotone

Revving up the courage, striving to stay true, on this broken highway, will I find my way through

My dashboard lights flash warning, my hopes tread wearing thin

In the rearview mirror, pain looming once again, the trunk's overloaded with the burden of my strife

I'm running out of road, can't see a way ahead in life

I wanna keep on driving, keep on pressing on, but my spirit is broken

My path ahead seems gone, still my desire propels me, compels me still to strive

Yet my will is fractured, no enjoyment from my drive

Don't know how far I can go, on this lonesome weary road, this voyage of melancholy penned on asphalt's cold scroll

Driving in the darkness, searching for the dawn, the journey's not yet over, my engine's growling on

Echoing the rhythm of my heart's lonesome tone, shadows cast their pallor on a life in monotone

Revving up the courage, striving to stay true, on this broken highway, will I find my way through

As I near the end, time itself is seized, the clock no longer ticking, the engine noise has ceased

My highway is ending, no more routes left to explore, running out of asphalt and of time evermore

But then on the horizon, a beacon of light appears, an exit sign emerges, easing all my fears

It promises a future, a tale still unrehearsed, a destination not yet seen, a highway untraversed

On this brand new highway, I'll keep driving on, rolling through the darkness, pushing towards the dawn

Revving up the courage, striving to grow and to thrive, on this open highway, I'll make it out alive

My heart's still beating, engine powering through the night, I know I'm gonna make it, I will be alright

I found myself a rest stop on this dark highway of life, fueled up on hope, I'll get out alive
