Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been watching the wheels turning
But I'm learning to enjoy the ride
On the run to nowhere
Hope we get there soon
[Verse 2]
'Cause it's a place we've been before
Like an obligatory store
Find a place in the sun, chameleon
Changing colors on demand
[Verse 3]
'Cause this is life and it's alright
Taking detours in your mind
You'll be fine if you try
To keep your eyes on the consolation prize
[Verse 4]
When you've lowered expectations
When you've run out of patience
It's all part of the plan when you're lost in the world
And you're going down hard for the girl
[Verse 5]
I've been running your lights in the city
Saying, who can I be running from?
My demons told my skeletons
You won't get very far
[Verse 6]
When I got to the dark side of the moon
All the trouble I thought I knew
Left me out in the cold, spinning out of control
On a broken carousel
[Verse 7]
Because this is life and it's alright
Chasing rumors in your mind
You'll be fine if you try
Keep your eyes on the consolation prize
[Verse 8]
On the road to tomorrow
Gonna have to beg, steal, and borrow
It's all part of the plan when you're dead to the world
And you're going down hard for the girl
[Verse 9]
For the girl
For the girl
For the girl
For the girl
[Verse 10]
See you on the other side of love along
See you all later at the end of the world
See you on the other side of love along
See you all later at the end of the world
[Verse 11]
'Cause this is life and it's alright
Taking detours in your mind
You'll be fine if you try
Keep your eyes on the consolation prize
[Verse 12]
On the road to Valhalla
Karma riding shotgun with drama
It's all a part of the plan when you're lost in the world
And you're going down hard for the girl
