Grand Marais

I need to be someone else or I'm going to explode...
 I watch the gentle rain wash the blood off the road...
 I'm in desperate need of a scenery change... 
 I feel alone, isolated, lost, and strange...
 Perhaps I need a trip up to Grand Marais...
 I check my balance... Yeah, maybe someday...
 I have a screaming urge to get out of here...
 Either deep underground or the stratosphere...
 I don't care that much where I go...
 I could sleep in the car or in a chateau...
 All I know is that I can't take much more...
 For this mundane repetition, I truly deplore...
