Five State Drive TX - There's No You in Focus

I should have known when I woke up that day
That everything was on the verge of change
I was approaching the stop sign of impending doom
But I was falling asleep
Plagued by thoughts too deep
Drowning in the shallowness of the billboards around me
Drowning in my car
Predictability can only take you so far
And day in and day out I've traveled this road so many times
I could drive it with my eyes closed so I might as well
And week in and week out there's no escaping this nine to five
I'm burning away in this vehicular hell but can you even tell
I should have known when I slammed my car door
That everything was on the verge of staying the same
I was approaching the cliff of an uncertain future
But it didn't look so steep
It was time for a leap of faith or the next closest thing on sale that week
Dying in my car
Accountability should only take you so far
Day in and day out I've traveled this road so many times
I could drive it with my eyes closed so I might as well
Week in and week out there's no escaping this nine to five
I'm burning away in this vehicular hell but can you even tell
And I can't tell
And I can't tell where you end and I begin in this sea of cars
And as far as I can tell
We're not important and we never will be
And life is saying oh well
