It's like my life is set on cruise control
Push the button and watch it go
Trying my best to keep a steady flow
In this traffic pattern of do's and don'ts
In my quest to stay ahead
A blur at times of who I am
Moving lane to lane then back again
Trying to avoid the latest traffic jam
By now I know my tank is low
Holding my breath in hope
Not sure how much further I can go
In this life set on cruise control
