Lyrics
[Verse]
Coffee in a paper cup
Watch the sun just wake up
Diesel fumes and gravel dust
Leaving what I couldn’t trust
The engine has a steady beat
Counting lines beneath my feet
Kansas looks the same today
Just a different shade of gray
[Chorus]
White lines and a heavy heart
Watching every mile apart
The radio plays something low
I’ve got nowhere left to go
White lines and a heavy heart
Learning how to fall apart
The radio plays something low
I’ve got nowhere left to go
[Verse]
Left my keys upon the shelf
Trying to outrun myself
Static on the AM band
Signs for towns I didn't plan
Passing rigs and rusted gates
Wondering if the kitchen waits
Maybe I should turn around
But I don't want to be found
[Chorus]
White lines and a heavy heart
Watching every mile apart
The radio plays something low
I’ve got nowhere left to go
White lines and a heavy heart
Learning how to fall apart
The radio plays something low
I’ve got nowhere left to go
[Bridge]
There’s a comfort in the motion
Of this dry and dusty ocean
Every exit is a door
I don’t want to close no more
[Chorus]
White lines and a heavy heart
Watching every mile apart
The radio plays something low
I’ve got nowhere left to go
White lines and a heavy heart
Learning how to fall apart
The radio plays something low
I’ve got nowhere left to go
[Outro]
