Just Me and the Road

I started walking slow, no place I had to be
Every step uncertain, trying to find me
Then she crossed my path like something meant to last
And I thought for a moment, I wouldn't be alone at last
But it was just illusion, a promise made to break
She took the light I had, left nothing in its place
Time kept moving on, but I stayed where I fell
Learning the hard way, what it means to know yourself

A few friends left, nobody I can trust
Every empty love just turned me into dust

Now it's just me and the road
Wind crashing into my soul
I keep on riding faster
Even when I lose control
And if I ever stop
It won't be 'cause I'm done
I'll ride until the end
Chasing down the Sun

Every hollow feeling pushed me further away
Every broken moment made me who I am today
But I'm still moving forward, even lost in the dark
With a fire in my chest, and a storm in my heart
On this endless highway I don't slow it down
Searching for headlights that won't fade out
I don't know if I'll make it, but I still gotta try
There's something waiting for me on the other side

No direction, no map to hold
But I won't stop, I won't fold

Now it's just me and the road
Wind crashing into my soul
I keep on riding faster
Even when I lose control
And if I ever stop
It won't be 'cause I'm done
I'll ride until the end
Chasing down the Sun

I don't know where it ends
Or where it all began
But as long as I'm breathing
I'll ride as far as I can

It's just me and the road
And the engine screaming loud
If there's something ahead
I'll find it through the crowd
And when I reach the end
If I'm still standing strong
All I wanna hear
Is that engine carrying me on
Just me
And the road
Till there's nothing left to run from
