Drifter - Capstan

Well I became unchained on those late night drives.

Following too close behind

Smiling through bloodshot eyes.

Definition of a reckless youth

Those Midwest nights will always show the brightest truth

But with no regrets I gave up all I had just to gain wide open oceans from

inland lakes

Sweet home no matter how far I go.

Regardless of the roads that I now travel

Brought to life by dust and gravel.

Filled my lungs and stood me up

Hardened inside by where I was stuck.

But a thousand miles and a few degrees

have forged true love I could never see

And I suppose that I’ll never know what tomorrow means if I let the past go

There’s feelings in these moments whether you choose to see them or not

And the worn out shoes on my tired feet tell stories of days now lost

Gripping to these seconds wish I could save some of these days

And I’ll keep them close for when I grow older to avoid mistakes I’ve made

But with no regrets I gave up all I had just to gain wide open oceans from

inland lakes

Sweet home no matter how far I go.

Regardless of the roads that I now travel

Brought to life by dust and gravel.

Filled my lungs and stood me up

Hardened inside by where I was stuck.

But a thousand miles and a few degrees

have forged true love I could never see

Here I think I’m finally found.

I’m weightless and outbound

Head up in the clouds, heels dug deep into the ground

And I’m gripping to these seconds wish I could save some of these days.

And I’ll keep them close for when I grow older to avoid mistakes I’ve made
