Fast Lane

Follow me down
 All the pathways where the broken remnants lie
 This October sky
 Is getting redder by the minute, and I
 I told you I'd try, but I don't know why
 'Cause we know it's a foolish waste of time
 And over and over again you cry
 And I get caught in your web of lies
 Said I'm driving in the fast lane
 Watching cars pass me by
 Don't know why, I, like to drive 85
 There's a cop on my left side
 Got the devil on my right
 I thought these were supposed to be the best days of my life
 Seems like trouble's always brewing
 When the leaves fall to the ground
 I leave this town, and never look behind
 When the trumpet sound
 There is no other way that I could go
 The sweet Ohio river flows away
 My day is covered in the melody
 So why not sing with me?
 Said I'm driving in the fast lane
 Watching cars pass me by
 Don't know why, I, like to drive 85
 There's a cop on my left side
 Got the devil on my right
 Thought these were supposed to be the best days of my life
 I don't know why, I
 Thought these were supposed to be the best days of my life
 When the cool wind's blowing
 Justify my ways
 'Cause in this haze
 The better days have passed me by
 The better days have passed me by
 Some say, "come fly with me"
 Escaping the fate of destruction
 Escaping the misery
 But I know, oh, oh
 The temporary sanity is fading quickly
 And in this falling city
 I said I need you with me
 Now I'm sitting in the backseat
 Watching cars pass me by
 Don't know why, I, like to drive 85
 There's a cop on my left side
 Got the devil on my right
 I thought these were supposed to be the best days of my life
 Said I'm driving in the fast lane
 Watching cars pass me by
 Don't know why, I, like to drive 85
 There's a cop on my left side
 Got the devil on my right
 I thought these were supposed to be the best days of my life
