Dead End Friends (track 04 from the eponymous LP by Them Crooked Vultures )
I drive all alone—at night—I drive all alone
I don’t know what I’m headed for
I follow the road—blind—until the road’s dead end
The night is in my veins—it’s calling me—racing along these arteries
And law is just a path to herd us over the cliff
I follow the road at night just hoping to find which puzzle piece fell out of me
I know who you are and I open the door and climb in
Hold me real close and do it again
I ache for the touch of my dead end friends
And I have got to know is it dead at the end of the road?
I can tell by that look in your eyes
We’re the same, my dead end friends and I
We drive on alone and our never-ending begins
Sweet is the curse just out of reach—it awakens the dead end part of me
And no more wondering—it’s just me and my dead end friends again
