Testo Northbound Lines - Hackeboda
Testo della canzone Northbound Lines (Hackeboda), tratta dall'album Ghosts,Highways & Whiskey
There's a thermos in the seat beside me
Coffee's gone bitter, but I drink it anyway
The road's still wet from last night's rain
And the tires hum like they've got something to say
I passed a town I should've stopped in
Saw the lights, but I kept my speed
Sometimes it's easier to leave things standing
Than find out what you really need
And I keep driving these northbound lines
Not chasing dreams, just passing time
There's things I miss, but I don't turn around
Some doors close quiet, without a sound
The past ain't loud, but it stays close by
Rides in the silence, mile by mile
I don't run, I just don't stay
That's how I've learned to live this way
There's a message I still haven't answered
From a name I know by heart
I read it once at a fuel stop outside Lund
Then locked the screen and let it fall apart
The sky's gone clear, almost too open
No place to hide what's on your mind
You learn real fast out here in motion
You can't outrun what's riding inside
So I keep driving these northbound lines
Not chasing dreams, just passing time
There's things I miss, but I don't turn around
Some words fade out without a sound
The past ain't gone, it just changed shape
Sits beside me, wide awake
I don't run, I just don't stay
That's how I've learned to live this way
I've known good nights that didn't last
And quiet mornings that felt like truth
But every time I tried to hold it
It slipped right through
So I keep driving these northbound lines
No real reason, no clear sign
If there's a place I'm meant to be
It hasn't made its way to me
But I've got road, and I've got time
And a steady hand and a moving sky
I don't run, I just don't stay
That's how I've learned to live this way
