On many nights of any month
I'm out here riding the bus
I'm not doing it to be some place else
It's just my best way to wake up
See, I have major anxiety attacks
Each morning I wake up alone
They always happen before sunrise
When I am on my own
They always happen before sunrise
When I am on my own
I know there are shelters I could go to
Where folks sleep together in large rooms
But I'd never take a spot from someone
Who has it worse than I do
Or I could just commit a crime
Where I'd be sent to prison
I'd seldom wake up alone there
But that's too extreme of a decision
When I'm feeling especially anxious
I head to the bus depot
And buy a ticket for any 8 hour trip
So I can wake up around people
After the driver checks my ticket
I put it away and turn off my phone
Nobody minds if you rest on a bus
And I sleep better than I do at home
Nobody minds if you rest on a bus
And I sleep better than I do at home
I know there are shelters I could go to
Where folks sleep together in large rooms
But I'd never take a spot from someone
Who has it worse than I do
Or I could just commit a crime
Where I'd be sent to prison
I'd seldom wake up alone there
But that's too extreme of a decision
I know there are shelters I could go to
Where folks sleep together in large rooms
But I'd never take a spot from someone
Who has it worse than I do
Or I could just commit a crime
Where I'd be sent to prison
I'd seldom wake up alone there
But that's too extreme of a decision
If I ever find true love
I won't have to take that bus ride
Cause I'll wake up next to someone
I went to bed with that night
But I don't know how I'll meet someone
When I'm always off rolling down the road
Maybe someone will slip their number into my pocket
While I'm snoozing on the coach
Maybe someone will slip their number into my pocket
When I'm snoozing on the coach
