Always on the road

 

Wait,
Mr. Getaway
Chasing your own shadow,
pacing in the distance
Haunted by your shadow,
wander by decision
A never-ending treasure hunt for purpose I’ve been told
No matter where you stay,
you’re always on the road

Valiant and headstrong,
yet nowhere is home
Forever in pursuit,
of what he’s never known
Even when he’s settled down,
he is always on the road

Stay,
Mr. Getaway
Pilgrim on a mission,
wayfaring alone
Solitude for vision,
never reap what has been sown
Every town feels better left, new places soon outgrown
No matter where you lay your head,
you’re always on the road

Valiant and headstrong
yet, nowhere is home
Forever in pursuit,
of what he’s never known
Even when he’s settled down,
he is always on the road
