lyrics

There are no friends on the road
Just the good, the bad and the broken
Racing to break even
But no friends on the road
You can walk, stroll and run
Under pressure to have fun
You can use, reuse and discard
But don’t you be too hard
No, don’t you be too hard

We’ll split and sever
And I’ll run forever
Like a night-hunter,
A restless drifter, a lonely driver
Watch me, watch over me, take me anywhere
I won’t ask, you won’t say
But that smell won’t go away
Pretend that you care
Pretend that you care

We’re all friends at this hour
Now’s your chance to whisper
Your own unspeakable
Mercy for the feeble
Watch me, watch over me, want me if you dare
One more late escape
Watch me escape fate
Pretend that you care
Pretend that you care

I’m speeding solo
Nose glued to my window
I’m burning mean streets
From the edge of my seat

Drunk losers out for fights
Cross-dressed angels light up the night
Sidewalk prophets
Quote holy books like men possessed
So I drive past the docks by the riverside
I drive, drive and drive up the mountainside
And you scream from the other side of the universe
Relive your whole life in reverse

And you scream from the other side of the universe
Relive your whole life in reverse
So I drive and I drive,
I drive and you ride,
I drive and you ride
On this New-Wave drive
On this New-Wave drive
