Jandek - Highway lyrics

I can't believe I'm here

With all the deaths I almost died

And then woke up in another place

Disoriented, I shook my head

What, where, how

Who, when, how much

What an escapade that was

And here I'm shooting like a star

In the sky

What a thrill that death ride was

But I'm glad to be alive and well

Let me check my parts

And see if I'm all here

Let me collect my thoughts

And organize my mind

Let me remember myself

All over again

Yes I've got to go

And I've got to stay

And be careful about the chasm in the road

Don't fall down there, you might not come back

If it hurts bad enough, you'll get knocked out

And maybe wake up in another body, or a rock

Or a lake, or a tree, or a cloud

You might even not know what you are

You might not be anything at all

For millions of years

Or for all of the time

To be no thing is a dream I had

Do you come close, or is it far away

Are you a highway for a lot of souls

I can't believe I'm here
