The Other

Stuck in traffic on my way
 To no particular place
 No agenda, no master plan
 No important dates
 No reason to be alive at all
 As far as I can tell
 Except for one small detail
 Like a distant ringing bell
 And it keeps on calling out to me
 Like a lost forgotten lover
 So I blast off down the shoulder
 To go looking for the other
 ♪
 Driving up the coast
 Past the surfers and the seals
 All them lonely rich folks
 Who only know how to steal
 Science can cure sickness
 But what can cure my soul
 It won't be long before I'm gone
 Laying in some hole
 So I find an ancient payphone
 To tell my mother I love her
 But she ain't home
 She must have gone out looking for the other
 ♪
 Pull up off the highway
 The moon is looking wicked good
 I throw my keys into the breeze
 And get lost in the woods
 I think about my old man
 And the mystery of time
 When suddenly between the trees
 I see the lake of fire
 So I jump right in
 And take a swim
 In this pool of unknown colours
 And as I swim I begin to brim with visions of the other
 ♪
 Found my car a few days later
 After I came to
 Her name was Blue Subaru 1982
 ♪
 I punched the clutch
 And kick the gas
 And take off in a burst
 Well it wasn't long before the gas was gone
 And we were overcome from thiother
 So we found a dusty truckstop
 Above the vultures hovered
 And I thought it was the end
 But then I thought again
 And that was when I took the hand of the other
