Burnin' Knuckles

Your lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, There it goes, But you don't even know your destination so, With a shake of your head, On goes the trip, And a whispered three words, This isn't it. Guided by a light, Of thirty or fourty feet, But your being driven by a heart, That has forgotten how to beat. Oh No, Here we go, Another mile turns into another night, Another day to drive right outta sight, Ohhh it's a rollercoaster horror ride. When looking over burning knuckles into the road, Oh it's a roller coaster horror ride, Lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, Your lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, An' there it goes, But you don't even know destination so, With a shake of your head, On goes the trip, And a whispered three words, This isn't it. On it goes_ this isn't it, On it goes_ this isn't it, Your trip_ Into the unknown, While lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, And guided by a light, An' a heart_ that has forgotten how to beat. Your lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, Strainin eye's on a light that guides, Our way through what we dont know. Ohh it's a rollercoaster horror ride, Being guided by the lonely nights, While lookin over, Burnin' knuckles, Into the road.
