Shame is a face that I've tried to erase
For the last seven miles
The highway has tried to keep pace
With my rubber band cage
And my nightlife exchange
It's the thrill of the chase
And I open the door
And the house, still asleep
Without me...
Trip up the stairs
Quiet footsteps prepare
For the already open door
I move like a cat
Without light, I adapt
Like I've done so many times before
And my wife, still asleep
Without me...
