I will drive a thousand miles   To escape the smog in this town   I will drive although I don't have a license   To escape the ideal that this city crowns      Hide every little scar with so much make-up   The skin can't even breathe   Hide every little scar or become the food they feed      Shift into a higher gear   Place the brick on the gas   On what I left behind I won't waste a tear   My rearview mirror has got broken glass      I will drive until I reach the desert   And wait until I see with my own eyes again   I will drive I'll head for the desert   And wait until our minds speak the same words as back then      This makes me into nothing in their eyes   But I'm willing to pay the price
