lyrics

Driving down the highway
on a bright and sunny day
The truck came out of nowhere
slamming on the breaks

Dying in slow motion
at least that’s what it seemed
Looked down to see if my legs
were still a part of me

Opened up the car door and ran
straight for the hills
I thought if I could run off
then none of it was real

Take me home
I don’t want to be in this place
Take me home
I don’t want to see the bruises on my face

They strapped me to a stretcher
I screamed please just let me go
I don’t know where my friends are
I don’t want to miss the show

4 hours long hours waiting
Wiped my blood and drank some wine
Stuck in West Virginia
in the E.D passing time

Cabernet, fluorescent lights
My heart is telling time
Waiting here and hoping
everybody’s still alive

People sing about the highway
With such glee in the voice
But I can’t love the highway
And I don’t have any choice

Love the destination
because there I know I’m safe
Goddamn West Virginia
I still love you just the same

Take me home
You know I was born in this place
Take me home
I’ve already seen the bruises on my face
