all roads to texas are closed.
highways through houston are underwater and frozen.
i just want to be home right now,
but five states down the road i'm not any closer.
i'm not even close.
how did i get so far?

all of this driving has taken its toll.
it's early enough that shadows point west,
and by west i mean home.
it's cloudy enough that shadows point nowhere but here.

the stars at night are big and bright, so ive heard.
but im in texas and all i see is fog and reflected light from light lined highways.
