It's Not

I keep going round and round on the same old circuit.

A wire travles underground to a vacant lot.

Where something I can't see interrupts the current.

And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot.

And from behind the screen, it can look so perfect.

But it's not.

So here im sittin in my car at the same old stop light.

I keep waiting for a change, but I don't know what.

So red turns into green, turning into yellow.

But I'm just frozen here on the same old spot.

And all I have to do is press the pedal.
