I need to get out of the city for a minute I need to turn off my phone Yeah, nobody in this race is gonna win it So why not run off on my own? I'm gonna stare at a fire 'til the coals burn down At the edge of the world where there's no one around Break through all the hustle for the rustle of that big empty sound Baby, I just need to go someplace Where I can't hear the highway Drop me in the middle of nowhere or where big sky is all I see I'm gonna break the repetition Lose some recognition And everybody's startin' to sound like politicians Baby, I just need to go someplace Where I can't hear the highway ♪ They need you right now It can't wait They pile more and more onto your plate 'Til I can't even see the stars for the buildings in the way When was the last time I caught my breath I walk a hard line 'til there's nothin' left I think it's high time I push this all off my chest I'm gonna stare at a fire 'til the coals burn down At the edge of the world where there's no one around Break through all the hustle for the rustle of that big empty sound Baby, I just need to go someplace Where I can't hear the highway Drop me in the middle of nowhere or where big sky is all I see I'm gonna break the repetition Lose some recognition And everybody's startin' to sound like politicians Baby, I just need to go someplace Where I can't hear the highway ♪ Baby, I just need to go someplace Where I can't hear the highway Drop me in the middle of nowhere or where big sky is all I see I'm gonna break the repetition Lose some recognition When everybody's startin' to sound like politicians Baby, I just need to go someplace Where I can't hear the highway Where I can't hear the highway No, I can't hear the highway I don't wanna hear that highway
