Cut Bait - Banner Pilot

Today you looked alright

But forcing smiles has to be painful

What’s the point of speeding to red lights?

We both know this ain’t what you were made for

It’s not your home, it’s a road at West End

All of the places that you’ve ever been to keep on strangling you

I guess I’ll just make believe the sun will rise when you leave

And wave goodbye to this lonely nowhere town

You spent a lifetime on your own

You know it’s cleaner without baggage

Tried but end up traveling alone

Pack any hope that you can salvage

It’s time to go off this road at West End

All of the places that you’ve ever been to keep on strangling you

I guess I’ll just make believe the sun will rise when you leave

And wave goodbye to this lonely nowhere town

She drove her yellow Ford up 94

We all know about the need to wander around the country, to quit

I put some coffee on, sat on the couch

Watched the late autumn leaves and I tried not to think about it
