Rumble Strips Songtext
von Chris Ayer

I′ve been awake too long now, and my eyes won't close
I′ve been awake too long now, and I'm going off the road

Maybe it's a sign of things to come
Maybe it′s a slapback echo for the shit that I′ve done

I keep moving faster, but you do not slow down
And the dragging of my head on my neck is the weight that I know now

God, if you can hear me, pull me so close
'Cause right now all this flesh on my bones is keeping me ground low


I will not react, I learned under attack
You take enough swings, it′s bound to hit you back
And the sound of the wheels on gravel ground
You know it's somewhere out of town
They say you′ve been gone so long, don't stop now

And now the blind horizon cuts the sun in half
And I can′t see a damn thing besides your backwards laugh

Maybe it's a sign of things to come
Maybe it's a slapback echo for the shit that I′ve done

I will not react, I learned under attack
You take enough swings, it′s bound to hit you back
And the sound of the wheels on gravel ground
You know it's somewhere out of town
They say you′ve been gone so long, don't stop now
