I Am the Highway

Pearls and swine
bereft
of me
Long and weary
my road
has been
I was lost in the cities
Alone in the hills
No sorrow or pity
for leaving I feel

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky

Friends and liars
don't wait
for me
'cos I'll get on
all by
myself
I put millions of miles
Under my heels
And still too close
to you I feel

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night
the night...

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night
the night...
