In a life of living some things get shoved aside
A man can hold in just so much, enough to stay alive
For me it's when I'm changing lanes these issues do erupt
I have to crane my neck a bit and pretend I am grownup
Disappointments, failures, never-weres, never should-have-beens
Unreturned phone calls, change of addresses, change of sin
Gravity is lethal, it keeps bringing us all down
Silence is impossible, then again so is sound
(chorus)
Hey buddy, check your blind spot
Hey driver, there's a whole lot
Of troubles that are hiding there
Best to check them while you can or give it up
It's been said that the subconscious is just like a well
You can put stuff in it but one day it will surely fill
It won't tell you when it's full, not directly like the news
When it starts to tell you is when you start to feel the blues
If you are a person who thinks and feels and laughs
If you are the kind who throws away the map
If you love to live but forget quite how it's done
Listen to your insides and sing and cry and run
(chorus)
Hey buddy, check your blind spot
Hey driver, there's a whole lot
Of troubles that are hiding there
Best to check them while you can or give it up
I love the people that I meet and those I have not yet
I'm kind of in a hurry to collect all my regrets
I've tried to fit in somewhere time and time again
I'm driving to the future but the past keeps butting in
And so I will go driving, looking straight ahead
As the world rushes up, a river of pavement
But I know that to my right and left, just beyond my view
Are objects in the mirror, too many to undo
Yes, objects in the mirror, too many to undo
(chorus)
Hey buddy, check your blind spot
Hey driver, there's a whole lot
Of troubles that are hiding there
Best to check them while you can or give it up
In a life of living some things get shoved aside
A man can hold in just so much, enough to stay alive
For me it's when I'm changing lanes these issues do erupt
I have to crane my neck a bit and pretend I am grownup
Disappointments, failures, never-weres, never should-have-beens
Unreturned phone calls, change of addresses, change of sin
Gravity is lethal, it keeps bringing us all down
Silence is impossible, then again so is sound
(chorus)
Hey buddy, check your blind spot
Hey driver, there's a whole lot
Of troubles that are hiding there
Best to check them while you can or give it up
