It's a window screen at 5:15 in the morning / It's a movie scene you can't believe is your life / Watchin' the blurry street as your body speeds down the highway / Holes in your jeans and naked girls on your mind / And a stranger gets ya high and touches your thigh / You look at the sky through the tears you cry / Your thumb pointing west and your life is a mess and the taste of blood and dirt and sweat / And the fluerescent lights light up your dark nights / Porcelain white / You fight to stay alive / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / Have to take that ride / Tonight! / From Los Angeles to New York City / And back to Louisville in Jefferson County / The slits in your eyes block the sun you despise / It shines on everyone, everything, all the lies / The loves ones you've known you leave them alone / There's no turning back kid you're on your own / You heard your mothers voice / As she died in Death Valley / She's back in Illinois / With your dear old Daddy / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / Have to take that ride / Tonight! / And you wonder what comes next / As you smoke your cigarettes / Form the bathroom in the Hess / You spot a red Corvette / You grab the guy by the neck / And then you grab his keys / You ain't dead yet / You're gonna / You're gonna / You're gonna / Take her for a ride / Take her for a ride / Tonight
