Lyrics
I am one of the broken
Feeling emotionally damaged or shattered
No matter the distance i put between us
No matter how far apart we are
Another town, another glass
In different places, consuming alcohol
Nameless and faceless with the strip malls and churches
Anonymous and indistinguishable among commercial areas and religious institutions
The cliches that we've become live on in all the bars
The stereotypes or predictable behaviors we've adopted persist in bars
Every state the same chase
Every location presents a similar pursuit or endeavor
Spill the ash from the urn
Symbolic act of scattering ashes
Someday let us return back to earth and sleep
Eventually, returning to the earth in death
Unending change makes us masters of the past
Constant change empowers us by understanding our history
That long look back
A reflective gaze towards the past
And at some point we're only lateral travelers
At some stage, we only move sideways, not progressing
I am a plane crash that'll never make the news
A metaphorical crash without garnering attention or recognition
And in a few drinks I'll be the euphoric passengers
Under the influence, feeling ecstatic like passengers in an aircraft before a crash
Life glazed over their eyes
A sense of indifference or detachment towards life
All this traveling to see that dreams are free here
Traveling extensively to realize that aspirations are achievable without constraints here
We're just neon signs with deserts of poverty behind
We are superficial representations hiding poverty-stricken realities
It'll cost you a lifetime when you want fortune like the wheel
Pursuing wealth or success can consume a lifetime
Make no mistake, I want fortune like the wheel
Expressing the desire for immense wealth or success
