Go
My Favorite Highway Lyrics

When I look to the other side,
The singer is considering making a change or leaving their current situation.

I just can't go, just can't go,
Despite the desire to leave, the singer feels unable to do so.

Two lanes in a checkout line,
The obstacles in the singer's way are mundane and frustrating.

I just don't know, just don't know
The artist is uncertain and indecisive about what to do.

If I choose when I can't decide
The artist is considering relying on others to make choices for them.

On my own, on my own
The singer values self-sufficiency.

It's all designed to keep me here
The singer feels trapped or stuck in their current situation.

And if I go, then I can't point it out.
The artist is worried they won't be able to explain their decision to leave.

I can't leave what I left behind
The artist is struggling with the idea of leaving something or someone they care about.

And just let go, just let go.
The artist feels like leaving something behind would be too difficult to bear.

Cause I believe in what I cannot find
The singer has faith in something intangible or elusive.

I just don't know, just don't know
The artist is still unsure about what to do.

I can't say cause I haven't tried
The singer feels unprepared or hesitant to speak about their feelings.

You promised to not to leave me here
The singer has likely been let down or abandoned before.

Leave me on my own
The singer desires independence, but is also afraid of being alone.

And it feels like A voice that is within me
The artist is struggling with an internal conflict or feeling.

And it feels like These eyes are filled with envy
The artist is jealous of someone or something else's perceived ease or success.

And it feels like It's wrong but you know
The singer is conflicted on what the right decision is.

A song for tomorrow Get gone and you're on your own
The singer is encouraging themselves to take a leap of faith and embrace change.

My room but I will not hide
The artist is acknowledging that they can't stay where they are forever.

And if I seem a little preoccupied
The artist is likely consumed by thoughts of change and leaving.

We lost track, but I didn't mind
The artist is looking back on a relationship or situation they've drifted away from.

Jumped out at the corner where I had to stop
The singer is using the metaphor of a street corner to represent a decision point in their life.

I took up and I might've made the people block
The artist is willing to take risks to pursue their goals, even if it means disrupting the status quo.

And now I ran 'til I couldn't see
The singer is making a break from their past or current situation.

Everything you tried to put in front of me
The singer is pushing back against external pressures or expectations.

Chasing everything that wasn't left to miss,
The singer is seeking out new experiences and opportunities.

And keeping my heart inside my chest
The artist is being cautious and guarded in their pursuit of change.

I'm not really kneeling, I'm not really healing,
The artist is not looking for someone else to fix their problems.

I'm just in between
The singer is in a state of transition or uncertainty.

Cause I lie to myself That I need what I don't
The singer is honest about their own self-deception or denial.

When I wish that you'd call And I'd run back home
The artist is wrestling with a desire for familiarity or comfort.

But I hate when I heal Then I leave when I won't
The artist struggles with their own inconsistency or indecisiveness.

Cause I think that I'll find something else
The artist is willing to take risks and explore new possibilities.

Oh!
An expression of passion or emotion.

You're on your own On your own On your own
The artist acknowledges that they are ultimately responsible for their own life and decisions.
