The High Road

It's a wonderful thought, that I could take one road
 And end up in L.A. when it's time to take a load off my shoulders
 Cause it gets much colder, it rains in the winter
 Where I live so I entered the I-5
 Just like this movie "Big Trip" where five drive
 Across the country as they journey through new realms
 The helm of an adventure as they capture it on film
 A new millennium the mission is essentially
 Questioning characters at the turn of the century
 No rush cause they'll get there eventually
 Kind of like my career and mind state mentally
 One route to follow, let's keep rollin'
 Desperate junkies and Silverman in New Orleans
 Black Elvis, some scenes make you smile
 An alligator wrestler that chills for a while
 Hold up, is that a manger at the side of the road
 Hallucinogenics and ecstasy caps to lighten the load
 The high road, not cause of the drugs you take
 Cause of the memories you keep, and the friends you make
 Bright lights, and neon streets that are beyond
 My road's the high road, the one you should be on
 The maiden voyage, descriptions of millennial contact
 Saved on footage, ships of the street in the summer heat
 When rubber meets the hot road, southern rainfall
 Weather and slang that change code, highway patrol
 Alcohol and Redbull
 Mediums mixed with drugs natural and chemical
 Immediate freak show plateau where you land individual
 Standing in the audience my mouth moves the visual
 The difference that will separate mind from brain
 Comes only with experience living on the wide open plane
 So focus on the questions and the answers and the game
 Incredible, the fast lane will have life flash
 Unforgettable, as long as I've got my friends it's worth the pain
 I've traveled the Earth I've fallen and risen in flames
 Driven to view the domain
 From the perspective of the young and protected
 Camera view overviews my objective overhead projective
 Absorbs the milliseconds, kilometers for reference
 Speedometers will mark the entrance
 We talk to residents who start sentence without reserve
 I realize the things I don't need all the things I don't deserve
 So I try to live simply in a complicated world
 Broken down engines, cowboys and Indians
 Black Jack gunfights saloons and women
 Eagles vultures hawks and crows
 (Prevail)
 Emergency exit at the hospital
 Rattlesnakes scorpions and rodents
 Ghost towns truck stops and stars explodin'
 In the wide and open rules apply to no man
 Die from a slow hand
 Live from the low land
