Grand Caravan

Scrounging up the change in your cup holder for gas
 There's a station up ahead after the overpass
 70 cents... Unleaded. It was enough to get you home
 By 8am... To a bed, where my mother slept alone
 Is it what you had in mind
 When you were imagining the rest of your life?
 Looking at all your decisions
 They're permanent
 Doesn't it hurt?
 It's not what you had in mind
 The gravel in our driveway made a particular sound
 You screamed that you heard it and you're on your way down
 They hitched it up to the back of the truck and then turned away
 You came inside with some quarters and dimes that you gave to me
 Is it what you had in mind
 When you were imagining the rest of your life?
 Looking at all your decisions
 They're permanent
 Doesn't it hurt?
 It's not what you had in mind
 I sat and watched you from my room as you were unphased
 Changing your clothes, and you gathered your things
 And you walked to the train
 And i still wonder

 Is it what you had in mind
 When you were imagining the rest of your life?
 Looking at all your decisions
 They're permanent
 Doesn't it hurt?
 It's not what you had in mind
 Did you leave it all behind
 When you started taking control of your life?
 Found yourself in a position
 Impermanent
 Doesn't it hurt?
 It's not what you had in mind
