Midway Drive
Gable Price and Friends Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take my heart with you
Shaky breath
Tear my lungs in two
Won’t you flood my world and fill the gaps with you
Take your time
I'm a patient man
I’m no dandelion
I am willingly a pawn inside a plan
Flood my shore
And sink my ships
Till all my land is covered up by you
Storm my gates
Conquer my kingdom
Everything fades if it's not sustained by you
And I feel like you’re finding me on midway drive
Collapsing me on top of me
Restructure my eyes
Won’t you flood my world and fill the gaps with you
And I met the Holy Ghost on the interstate
We were pushing 105 on the highway of fate
Won’t you flood my world and fill the gaps with you
Flood my shore
And sink my ships
Till all my land is covered up by you
Storm my gates
Conquer my kingdom
Everything fades if it's not sustained by you
And I feel like you’re finding me on midway drive
Collapsing me on top of me
Restructure my eyes
Won’t you flood my world and fill the gaps with you
And I feel like you’re finding me on midway drive
Collapsing me on top of me
Restructure my eyes
Won’t you flood my world and fill the gaps with you
Take a rib
Take my heart with you
Shaky breath
Tear my lungs in two
Won’t you flood my world and fill the gaps with you
The lyrics of Gable Price and Friends' song "Midway Drive" suggest a strong desire to be consumed and overwhelmed by a romantic partner. It's a plea for them to "flood" the singer's world and fill all the gaps in their life, as they willingly become a "pawn inside a plan." The imagery of sinking ships and storming gates suggests a willingness to let go of control and let the partner take over completely. The repetition of the line "And I feel like you’re finding me on midway drive" implies that this desire for surrender is a constant and recurring theme in the singer's life.
The song also includes elements of religious imagery, particularly in the line "And I met the Holy Ghost on the interstate / We were pushing 105 on the highway of fate." This suggests a belief in a higher power and a sense of fate or destiny guiding the singer's life. The concept of being "restructured" and having their eyes opened by their partner is also reminiscent of religious conversion.
Overall, the lyrics of "Midway Drive" convey a powerful sense of surrender and submission to love or a higher power, suggesting that the singer is willing to give up everything in order to be consumed by something greater.
