Lyrics

MCCALLISTER ROAD
Five nights since I saw his taillights headed up McCallister Road
Head down, and he’d come around just as far as he ever would go
And all those years, and all my wasted tears
Lay as silent in the dark as the stones on McCallister Road

Five days and I’m in a haze staring out at McCallister Road
Breathe deep and try to keep the balance where the line is bowed
And all those times I should have changed my mind
Crumble into dust at the side of McCallister Road

I’ve never been one to live for the things that are bought and sold
And I can’t be bound by a love that gives only lies that are empty and cold
And I have tried to keep it all inside
But I’m headed for a day far away from McCallister Road

Five years since I faced my fears in the middle of McCallister Road
Stand still and try to feel the truth that remains untold
And all those times I never spoke my mind
Are lost at the cost of the journey from McCallister Road

I’ve never been one to live for the things that are bought and sold
And I can’t be bound by a love that gives only lies that are empty and cold
And I have tried to keep it all inside
But I’m headed for a day far away from McCallister Road
