The rugged mountain slopes so close to home,

Always coming back to the same old views in my head,

And I hate it because it's all so close to lingering right here at home,

Stuck in the back seat, but I'd be okay with center council,

And the radio I don't care blarring between the straight lines,

Wondering how far I gotta drive to find my home that lingers,

Fingertips away,

I know I'll love it,

Muscles tense,

I'm working on buying my own keys,

I know I'll die of heart attack,

Keeping myself stressed out,

Hoping I keep it going past,

The first leap out the door,

Because I know I can take off and run it,

But if only I wasn't nervously hiding behind the door.
