about

Written by Pete Mancini and Matt Patton

lyrics

Crashed in the backseat again
6 hours til load in
5 hours to spend
On the interstate cruise control on
With guitars and records
a dead cell phone

Find a cafe and recharge
News on the TV says
A killer’s at large
I’m wanted in different ways
I'm being chased by the homecoming pain

And I wonder are you staying out late?
As I drive through these flyover states
To a different stage in a different town
On free will and the corner of fate

Downbeat on the one and it’s on
The people are dancing, having their fun
For a moment I have it in sight
Singing my songs
Thank you, goodnight

It's enough to get to the next town
I know that you miss me when I'm not around
The same way you dance through my head
As I lie down in some strange bed

And I wonder are you staying out late?
As I drive through these flyover states
To a different stage in a different town
On free will and the corner of fate

Well I packed up and just kept on driving
In spite of the love that we knew
This road that I chose is winding
It's closer to me, farther from you

Woke up as the dew settled in
I've got steam for the coffee
And more roads to bend
On the interstate cruise control on
Comfort can wait 'til I'm home

And I wonder are you staying out late?
As I drive through these flyover states
To a different stage in a different town
On free will and the corner of fate
On the corner of fate
On the corner of fate
