Asleep At The Wheel

(album: Sunset Sessions - 2021)

It's all so easy
To paper over cracks
Like trying to win hangman with 4 letters left
Tell me where did that get us

I looked for an exit
A way off this road
Never been good with reading maps
So I let you navigate
Guess I was trying to play it safe

Drove over the freeway, into this one way street
How long have I been unconscious
When did I missed the turn
Must have been hypnotized
Under these neon signs
You must have known I've been asleep at the wheel

No idea where we're going
Where is A? Where is B?
Seemed so sure you knew the way
Said you'd get me home safely
Why on earth didn't you wake me

Drove over the freeway, into this one way street
How long have I been unconscious
When did I missed the turn
Must have been hypnotized
Under these neon signs
You must have known I've been asleep at the wheel

Can't you see, these lights are blinding
Can't you hear the sirens
Or are you sleeping

High over the freeway, I see a roundabout
How long have I been out
When did we missed our turn
I don't remember this
Is not the way back home
You must have known, I should have known
We've been asleep at the wheel
