Lyrics

[Chorus]
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
I'm down to go anywhere
You tryin' to go west
I'm tryin' to get away from here
You tryin' to go west
I'm down to go anywhere
You tryin' to go west
I'm tryin' to get away from here
You tryin' to go west
[Verse 1]
A horse named Ford, '96 Tempo
Close the doors and try to roll the windows up
Before the seats get soakin' wet
Turned on the wipers and hold my breath
94 West outside of Fargo
Gotta get petrol, that's how the car go
Cup full of truck stop coffee and a caramel roll
The cashier lookin' like an art show
And I could tell that she wanted to run away from here
And she could tell that I ain't from here
And even though it feels hopeless
We both just a couple of ghosts tryin' to get to the coast
We been through hell, ain't hard to tell
We can't save each other until we save ourselves
I complimented her tattoos and bounced
Keep your head high and your wheels on the ground
Westbound
[Chorus]
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
I'm down to go anywhere
You tryin' to go west
I'm tryin' to get away from here
You tryin' to go west
I'm down to go anywhere
You tryin' to go west
I'm tryin' to get away from here
You tryin' to go west
[Verse 2]
Listen, I might've wrote this in Billings
If you ain't fishin', then don't catch feelings
I'm tryin' not to hit my head on the ceiling
That's why I recline till it looks like I'm leanin' on the back seat
Weavin' in and out of traffic like a taxi
But I don't have any passengers
It's only me like it's supposed to be
Come on Maxi Priest, you're too close to me
Woke up in Bozeman, it's calm and frozen
But the sunshine brighter than a bomb's explosion
Stopped at the lobby to drop the key
Mommy at the front desk lookin' at me like she wanna be free
Join the club, everybody lookin' for the coin or the love
But the rub is that it's never enough
I complimented her boots and then bounced
Before she replied, I already left town
Westbound
[Chorus]
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
You tryin' to go west
I'm down to go anywhere
You tryin' to go west
I'm tryin' to get away from here
You tryin' to go west
I'm down to go anywhere
You tryin' to go west
I'm tryin' to get away from here
You tryin' to go west
[Verse 3]
Maybe I'm gone, maybe I don't belong
Maybe I got it all wrong
Maybe I'm outside but still withdrawn
Tryin' to write about life through the filter of a song
Maybe when you're first in line it works fine
Maybe it's about how you interpret the sign
Maybe this is how I pass the time
Like I'm travelin' westbound to go back in time
Maybe that bartender never existed
Maybe the waitress was somebody different
Maybe my hallucinations are related
To the parts we erased out of my imagination
Yeah, maybe I imagined it all
Project my thoughts on a random wall
In this bathroom stall in an abandoned mall
But don't trip, I'll see you next fall
Westbound
