Just Cars
Beyond the Road: Finding Life in the Commute
Lyrics
They're just cars
They are simply vehicles.
On a highway
Located on a highway.
They're just cars
Emphasis on the simplicity of cars.
On a highway
Reiteration of the cars' presence on a highway.
I'd like to be at a point where I could hear
Desire to reach a point where the sound of cars evokes positive thoughts.
The sound of them traveling and think
Specifically, the desire to associate car sounds with positive narratives.
Oh and think
Repetition for emphasis on reflective thinking.
That maybe that's Johnny going to his uncle's house
Imagining a personal connection, Johnny going to his uncle's house.
Or Leah on her way to travel the world
Imagining another personal connection, Leah traveling the world.
But for me
Shift in focus to the narrator's current perspective.
Right now
Emphasizing the current detached view of cars.
They're just cars
Reiteration of the simple nature of cars on a highway.
On a highway
Reiteration of their presence on a highway.
They're just cars
Stressing the straightforward perception of cars.
On a highway
Restating the location on a highway.
They're just cars
Continued emphasis on cars as mere vehicles.
On a highway
Reiteration of their presence on a highway.
They're just cars
Reiteration of the simplicity of cars.
On move-in day
Specific mention of move-in day, possibly a personal memory.
I'd like to be at a point where I could hear
Desire for a positive association with the sound of traveling cars.
The sound of them traveling and think
Reiteration of the desire for positive thoughts associated with car sounds.
Oh and think
Repetition for emphasis on reflective thinking.
That maybe that's Riley going to piano lessons
Imagining another personal connection, Riley going to piano lessons.
Or Anna heading to a wedding reception
Imagining yet another personal connection, Anna heading to a wedding reception.
But for me
Shift in focus to the narrator's current perspective.
Right now
Emphasizing the current detached view of cars.
They're just cars
Reiteration of the simple nature of cars on a highway.
On a highway
Reiteration of their presence on a highway.
They're just cars
Stressing the straightforward perception of cars.
On a highway
Restating the location on a highway.
They're just cars
Emphasizing the simplicity of cars with no additional significance.
Nothing more
Affirming that cars hold no additional meaning beyond being vehicles.
They're just cars
Reiteration that cars are devoid of additional significance.
Nothing more
Reiteration that cars have no deeper meaning.
They're just cars
Stressing again that cars lack additional significance.
Nothing More
Repeating the idea that cars are void of extra meaning.
They're just cars
Emphasizing the simplicity of cars with no added complexity.
Nothing more
Reiterating that cars lack extra depth or meaning.
Nothing less
Clarification that cars are neither more nor less than what they are.
They're just cars
Reiteration that cars are simply vehicles with no additional significance.
