I took the wheel with burning eyes
Trying to stay awake, just trying to stay alive
I lost control, somewhere in Colorado
But I avoided flashing lights

Stay awake to stay alive, all we ever do is drive

Let's sing a song about the winter for a change
The sunshine just makes me close my eyes
Let's remember snowy nights, driving down the interstate
Hoping that these tires don't slide, not tonight, oh not tonight

I watch the miles and the signs disappear before my eyes
Following the highway lines
Through foggy glass with music loud, snow falls from the clouds
Fuck that I'm pulling over now

Stay awake to stay alive, all we ever do is drive

Let's sing a song about the winter for a change
The sunshine just makes me close my eyes
Let's remember snowy nights, driving down the interstate
Hoping that these tires don't slide, not tonight, oh not tonight
Oh not tonight

Oh not...
We drive, we try
To make it through the night alive
We drive, we try
To live under these flashing lights
We drive, we try
To make it through the night alive
Let's sing a song about the winter for a change
The sunshine just makes me close my eyes
Let's remember snowy nights, driving down the interstate
Hoping that these tires don't slide (forget pulling over)

Let's sing a song about the winter for a change
The sunshine just makes me close my eyes
Stay away, to stay alive
