The Road With No Name

Verse 1

Everyone's posting the same map

Same arrow pointing at the door

I traced their footsteps in the sand

But my shoes never fit before

I watched them cheer the same parade

Same banner waving in the wind

I stood there counting all the roads

And found the one they never pinned

Pre-Chorus

So let them run their circle game

I'd rather wander out of frame

Chorus

I'm taking the road with no name

Painting my own sky every day

I don't need their hands to guide

I'll make my own mistakes and ride

Post-Chorus

Ride ride ride ride

My own way home tonight

Verse 2

My phone buzzes with their advice

Little blue thumbs and their old lines

But every answer sounds the same

Like a chorus they rehearse in time

I turned the volume off at noon

Let the quiet tell me something new

The compass in my chest beats loud

And that's the north I'm walking to

Pre-Chorus

So let them trade their certainties

I'm chasing what I can't yet see

Chorus

I'm taking the road with no name

Painting my own sky every day

I don't need their hands to guide

I'll make my own mistakes and ride

Post-Chorus

Ride ride ride ride

My own way home tonight

Bridge

Maybe I'll fall and scrape my knees

Maybe the dark will swallow me

But I'd rather burn bright and wrong

Than dim myself to sing their song

Chorus

I'm taking the road with no name

Painting my own sky every day

I don't need their hands to guide

I'll make my own mistakes and ride

Post-Chorus

Ride ride ride ride

My own way home tonight

Ride ride ride ride

My own way home tonight
