Should the canyons burn

All night long like the 4th of July

We won't need an alibi

 There's gas in the car

Hours til sunrise

And there's no guarantee

 That leaving town's gonna set us both free

But staying here it's just not what we need

Staying here it's just not what we need

Because America shines yes it does

In between the white lines where I found love

 All alone on a road going nowhere (nowhere)

 Going nowhere (nowhere)

 Going nowhere

 At full speed

I have traveled far

And I've seen things that I'd rather not say

But when you're traveling it's better that way

The darker the secret the harder you keep it

But it's no victory

Always running away like I do

I always know that I'll come back to you

I always know that I'll come back to you

Because America shines yes it does

In between the white lines where I found love

 all alone on a road going nowhere (nowhere)

 going nowhere (nowhere)

 going nowhere

 at full speed

 at full speed

(solo)

Because America shines yes it does

In between the white lines where I found love

All alone on a road going nowhere (nowhere)

 Going nowhere (nowhere)

 Going nowhere

 At full speed

Alone on a road going nowhere (nowhere)

 Going nowhere (nowhere)

 Going nowhere

 At full speed

And should the canyons burn

I'll be catching a ride off the coast
