Lyrics

Once again

Expressing a recurring event or situation.

There's a feeling inside of me

Describing an internal sensation or emotion.

Nothing new

Stating that the feeling is not something novel.

I've felt it before

Confirming a prior experience of the emotion.

Like the voice of hunger

Metaphorically likening the sensation to hunger.

Inside of me crying out

Expressing an internal longing or desire.

There's got to be more

Expressing a belief or hope for more.


I'll put my faith

Placing trust or reliance on the unknown journey ahead.

In the arms of an open road

Inviting someone to join on the uncertain path.

And you can come along

Offering the choice to accompany on the journey.

If you choose

Leaving the decision to the other person.


'Cause there's places

Referring to undiscovered locations.

That I've never been to

Describing opportunities for new experiences.

Sunsets to be ridden into

Imagery of riding into picturesque sunsets.

Not a lot I can do

Feeling limited in influencing circumstances.

But give in to the drifter

Surrendering to the nomadic lifestyle.

There's a drifter in me

Acknowledging the presence of a drifting inclination.


Though I've tried it

Expressing an unsuccessful attempt at settling down.

I'm just not a settler

Not fitting into a conventional lifestyle.

And nine to five

Rejecting typical working hours as unsuitable.

Don't make it with me

Disinclination towards a traditional work routine.

Why deny it

Admitting a personal preference for a different lifestyle.

It makes me feel better

Feeling a sense of liberation and contentment.

To come alive

Feeling invigorated and alive.

And prove that I'm free

Asserting independence and freedom.


I wear no chains

Emphasizing freedom from restrictions.

And I carry no heavy load

Not burdened by responsibilities.

So much to gain

Highlighting potential rewards without risks.

And nothing to lose

Expressing a lack of consequences for actions.


'Cause there's places

Referring again to undiscovered places.

That I've never been to

Describing opportunities for exploration.

Sunsets to be ridden into

Imagery of journeying into beautiful sunsets.

Not a lot I can do

Feeling constrained in one's options.

But give in to the drifter

Resignation to the wandering nature.

There's a drifter in me

Reiterating the inherent inclination to drift.
