High Way Calls
Navigating Life's Crossroads: High Way Calls Unveiled
Lyrics
High Way Calls
Highway Calls
From the time you're a kid there's a trigger inside
From childhood, there's an internal trigger that will activate eventually
It's gonna go off, it's just a matter of time
It's inevitable, just a matter of time
Til you and your vices take center stage
Your vices will take a prominent role
In or out of the spotlight there's no escape
Regardless of being in or out of the spotlight, there's no escape
Dirty or clean
Choices between dirty or clean
Drunk or sober
Choices between drunk or sober
You're off to the races
Life is a race, whether under the influence or not
Over and over
Repetition of the cycle
Chip an inch off rock bottom
Constantly scraping an inch off rock bottom
Every time you fall
Every fall chips away at you
Yeah the low road is waiting
The low road is always there
When the high way calls
The temptation of the high road calling
One's good, two's better, so you have three or four
Incremental indulgence, wanting more
The only thing you want in this life is one more
Desire for more in life
You try to quit change lovers, cities and clothes
Attempts to change various aspects, but self remains
But you take yourself with you wherever you go
You carry your issues with you wherever you go
Dirty or clean
Choices between dirty or clean persist
Drunk or sober You're off to the races
Choices between drunk or sober persist
Over and over
Life's racing cycle continues
Chip an inch off rock bottom
Continual scraping at rock bottom
Every time you fall
Each fall contributes to the journey
Yeah the low road is waiting
The low road is ever-present
When the high way calls
The temptation of the high road calling persists
Sometimes it's the guilt, sometimes it's the pain
Guilt, pain, and prayers may influence the journey
Sometimes is a prayer, somebody else prayed
The emotional aspects of the journey
One day you wake up enough to get help
A moment of realization to seek help
Yeah every road's different that leads outta hell
Various paths lead out of difficult situations
Dirty to clean
Choices between dirty and clean persist
Drunk to sober
Choices between drunk and sober persist
One day at a time
Recovery is a gradual process, one day at a time
Over and over
Repetition of the cycle, one day at a time
Climb up from rock bottom
Gradual improvement, climbing up from rock bottom
Look back on it all
Reflecting on the journey
And you don't miss the ride
Not missing the challenging experiences
When the high way calls
The temptation of the high road is not missed
No you don't miss the ride
Reiteration: Not missing the challenging experiences
When the highway calls
The ongoing allure of the highway
