Barlow (USA) - Cruise lyrics

Well I backstroked through my high school years Changing lanes and changing gears Thought I was invincible Thinking I could change the world Cutting cla**es breaking rules The learning started after school You were there we'd slip away Drive right through the yawning day and... Cruise Never check the review mirror Cruise Watch the future getting clearer Shut your mouth and close your eyes Put the seat back let me drive and cruise With a name tag and a bright blue vest They put the handcuffs on your wrist Your careless summer's been replaced A smile's a stranger to your face And my fingers punch the cold white keys I'm commas and apostrophes Someday we'll get out of this Leave a postcard on the desk and... Cruise Never stop to think about it Cruise Not a single doubt about it Feet don't ever touch the ground So high we're not coming down we cruise And my body aches For the warm embrace Of a better day Oh it's not too late to slip away Not too late to slip away now
