Lyrics
It's so hard riding shotgun when all your life's been locked behind the wheel. It's like driving with your eyes closed. Driving with my eyes closed. Funny I don't know how it would feel; I've always been the one in such control. Every single bump is like a sudden stop. Do I abdicate my freedom? Maybe so, maybe not.
But the wheels keep turning
And hearts are yearning
And a fire somewhere is burning
But I'm still here
I'm still Standing Still
Flying down the highway trying so hard not to listen to that girl in the box. She's singing my song. Tell me will I ever win? Damn, but she could be my siameese twin she just happens to scream louder. Ever single break and every sudden stop. Tell me, should I quit my day job?
Maybe so. Maybe not.
But the wheels keep turning
And my heart is yearning
And this fire inside me is still burning
Yeah but I'm still here
I'm still standing
Why am I still here
I'm still Standing Still
Lost another friend to aids. God, you take the sweetest ones away. Why can't I cry for just a moment now? Cause I keep screaming down the freeway. I got my radio cranked up extra loud that's how I tranqualize my feelings now. Every single tear makes a sudden stop. Will I ever melt the iceman? Maybe so. Maybe not.
But the wheels keep turing
And my heart is yearning
Today his ashes are burning
But I'm still here
I'm still
Why and I still here
I'm still
Hey God, I'm still here
I'm still Standing Still
