lyrics

The road is so clumsy these days
I won't pretend to understand her ways
I don't expect you to get what I mean
I was the only witness at the scene

I'm drivin' through life, a blown-out front tire
No direction, no desire
A tightrope made of concertina wire
Drivin' through life, a blown-out front tire

The earth just tilted three more degrees
Brother that's why I'm weak in the knees
I've pressed rewind in my rear view mirror
Hoping to find my conscience clearer

I'm drivin' through life, a blown-out front tire
No direction, no desire
A balancing act on concertina wire
Drivin' through life, a blown-out front tire

My wager's laid, my penance paid
No masquerade, no baracade
No dragon slayed, no welcome-home parade
My execution's stayed and my bed is made

You're free to what you want to believe
Keep it locked inside or wear a tattoo sleeve
There will always be more stones to cast
Baby, let me be your iconoclast

I'm drivin' through life, a blown-out front tire
No direction, no desire
Such a delicate pose on concertina wire
Drivin' through life, a blown-out front tire

The road is so clumsy these days
I won't pretend to understand her ways
It's lonesome, contrary and mean
Three miles west on highway fifteen
I don't expect you to get what I mean
I was the only witness at the scene
