Wheels In Motion - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I been wiping these raindrops back and forth for weeks

The raindrops are tears and the windshield is my cheeks

Concealed in guilt from my dream left in limbo

Awake to the realization of life through this window

It bleeds like any other suicidal Wednesday

The CD skips when it recycles what your friends say

And I'm still driving on a quarter tank of anger

Dismissing all regret and seeking comfort from a stranger

The road is slowly turning itself into a bear trap

Collapse against the real bodies in a parallax

The storm continues, it's a natural aggression

Within the broken glass I come across my own reflection

Don't connect the flaw without the evidence

You won't detect a single product that has relevance

This is how the crash appeared inside my nightmares

How slowly disappeared and fade with the road flares

[Chorus]

This is the face that describes every side of life

Her picture says a thousand words, but never says them right

One of a kind, too involved to ever let it go

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby, while you're headed home

This is the face that describes every side of life

Her picture says a thousand words, but never says them right

One of a kind, too involved to ever let it go

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby

[Verse 2]

Push the pedal to next week

I've got the best seat

I'm on a mission to secure my proper destiny

I call it my life, you call it wastin' time

It's just a tightrope that we're walkin' on, a shaky line

Be the antagonist, I'll be your advocate

We'll be connected at the heart as we imagined this

It might just be the only way to keep the ship afloat

And we might have to aim the daggers at the devil's throat

Command and conquer, the animal instinct offer

The chemical for destroying what this animal seems to long for

Poison particles are airborne and on the move

Just tryna make it out alive is sometimes hard to do

Contemporary, we're living in cemeteries

Conditioned the constricting, complicating winter flurries

Spinnin' out of control, prepare for this crash

Staring at the shattered glass, privy to the whiplash

[Chorus]

This is the face that describes every side of life

Her picture says a thousand words, but never says them right

One of a kind, too involved to ever let it go

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby, while you're headed home

This is the face that describes every side of life

Her picture says a thousand words, but never says them right

One of a kind, too involved to ever let it go

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby

[Bridge]

I live for the opportunities that other people throw away

It's nothing new to me, escaping from this sober state

It hurts the first time, by now you'd think I wrote a book

Standing in this line all day just hoping that you open up

Complications can lead to an altercation

Can feel like an accusation

Complete from the vaccination

Cause another accident

Another casket sits

Beneath the tragedy and family that's passionate

I never take the wheel if I don't feel unconfident

Putting your life into my hands, I'll sign the documents

I'll accept all the blame that you can throw my way

I just ask that when I pass, you still know my name

9 to 5 on the interstate, I'm leavin' now

Don't know where I'm going, but I'll take the scenic route

Caught a case of the half-full pint glass

Act like you're runnin' past

You'll never get sidetracked

[Chorus]

This is the face that describes every side of life

Her picture says a thousand words, but never says them right

One of a kind, too involved to ever let it go

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby, while you're headed home

This is the face that describes every side of life

Her picture says a thousand words, but never says them right

One of a kind, too involved to ever let it go

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby, while you're headed home

[Outro]

I'll keep the wheels in motion, baby
