Where you are right now isn’t where I’m supposed to be, I know
But I entertain the thought, promise I will make it brief and go
I’m gone
I won’t stay by the side of the road and just wait for another tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
Because the road always seems too long and our right turns sometimes feel wrong
But don’t stop this time
Everyone I pass feels the same way on a different street
Fall asleep for days, it’s not envy if it’s just a dream
Behind the Song:"So much of people’s lives is spent in a silent, “acceptable” coveting of other people’s lives.
I am there all the time.
As a band, we are constantly on the road, and I am constantly wishing I was...any number of places OTHER than the road. This causes my heart to be in a state of reclusion from experiencing day to day life and being content in whatever I have. The truth is, most everyone experiences this in one form or another. What if I had gone to that school, what if I had taken that risk, what if I had chosen NOT to take that risk...the list of “what if’s” goes on and on.
We all wonder what life would be like if we had just...fill in the blank. I am finding the secret of life is to keep driving on the road you are on, and quit being a paralytic zombie wandering through life discontented." - Justin Anderson (
