Lake Speed

Out on the freeway Away from the track Another tenth place Never gonna be in the black Everyone's dancing Gold and champagne Drank a few tall boys Wash away my shame Can't buy you things Can't buy your love Lost all my sponsors Don't know what I'm driving for See the way you look at me With pity and confusion Tried to be your everything Always end up losing Thought someday my time would come Sacrificed and prayed Up ahead the flag goes down While I melt away Out on the freeway Away from it all Green lights are fading Gathering dark
