Ian Perry - Journey Lyrics

We travelled through the night
Towards nowhere I remembered
The turning of the wheels was pulling sleep
Into my body
The car was like a womb
The streetlights passed like heartbeats
The past I left behind
Was fading but not forgotten
As we drove on, my mind could focus on nothing
Because nothing felt real
Just a sense of disorientation
There was nothing to do but abandon myself
To the journey
Let the changes wash over
Let them renew and sustain me;
And the cities spread their lights
As if ports in an ocean of darkness
Gateways to a life
Cut loose from soil and starlight

Moment by moment
The buildings grew taller
Second by second
The skyline went soaring up;
Cats eyes and white line slurred by
And people were everywhere
The future written on every wall
In this new time
This new town
This new home
