Far Side of Nowhere
Journey to Freedom: Embracing Life's Open Road with Social Distortion
Lyrics
I wake up; drink my coffee
I begin my day by waking up and having my coffee.
Put on my pants and comb my hair
I get dressed and groom myself, preparing for the day.
Today's the day, I ain't got nothing
Today holds no specific plans or responsibilities for me.
I ain't got nothing, I ain't got a care
I am carefree and unburdened by worries or concerns.
The sun is out; it's shining bright
The weather is pleasant with the sun shining and birds singing.
The birds are singing and the skies are blue
The atmosphere is positive with clear blue skies.
My motor runs, a lover's heartbeat
My inner energy or motivation is strong, symbolized by a lover's heartbeat.
It's just me and you
The focus is on a connection between "me and you."
Put the pedal to the metal
Emphasis on acceleration; urging someone to turn on the radio.
Baby, turn the radio on
A call to engage with music, possibly to enhance the journey.
We can run to the far side of nowhere
Suggesting the possibility of escaping to an unknown and distant place.
We can run 'til our days are gone
Continuing the idea of running away, implying a desire for freedom.
And ignorance, they say is bliss
Reflecting on the notion that ignorance can bring happiness.
So today I'm king of these hills
Feeling a sense of dominance or control over one's surroundings.
We're gonna drive, drive to nowhere
Expressing the intention to drive aimlessly, without a specific destination.
Ain't gonna stop until
Committing to the idea of continuous movement without interruption.
We put the pedal to the metal
Reiteration of the desire to accelerate and engage with music.
Baby, turn the radio on
Encouraging the involvement of music in the journey towards the unknown.
We can run to the far side of nowhere
Repeating the theme of escaping to a distant and unspecified location.
We can run 'til our days are gone
Emphasizing the idea of running away until the end of one's days.
Put the pedal to the metal
Repetition of the call to accelerate and tune in to the radio.
Baby, turn the radio on
Encouraging the enjoyment of music while continuing the journey.
We can run to the far side of nowhere
Restating the theme of escaping to the far side of nowhere.
We can run 'til our days are gone
Continuing the idea of running away until the passage of time.
Put the pedal to the metal
Final repetition of the call to accelerate and engage with music.
Baby, turn the radio on
Encouraging the continuation of the journey with music playing.
We can run to the far side of nowhere
Reiterating the desire to run to the far side of nowhere.
We're gonna run 'til our days are gone
Commitment to running away until the end of one's days.
