Yeah… the wheels keep turnin’ but I ain’t movin’

Tick-tock, tick-tock, yeah the city keeps groovin’

I been waitin’ on your word, waitin’ on your sign

But the clock just laughs at me, wastin’ all my time

Every car is a prison, every horn a scream

I’m sittin’ here lonely, lost in the machine

Trust is a highway, but it’s broken down

Time is a traffic jam, it just spins me ‘round

Lonely at the red light, nowhere to go

Stuck in the city with a heart I can’t show

The rain hits the windshield, turns the night to glass

Every minute feels heavy, every second won’t pass

I reach for tomorrow, but it slips through my hands

Like smoke through the engine, like dust in the sand

Trust is a highway, but it’s broken down

Time is a traffic jam, it just spins me ‘round

Lonely at the red light, nowhere to go

Stuck in the city with a heart I can’t show

I said…

People talk about freedom

But they don’t know the cost

Every mile that I’m dreamin’

Is another mile I lost

Trust is a highway, yeah it’s broken down

Time is a traffic jam, it just spins me ‘round

Lonely at the red light, nowhere to go

Stuck in the city with a soul I can’t show

Wheels keep turnin’

But I don’t move

Yeah… I don’t move…
