Speedway

Speedway
I get so nervous I'm shaking
Gets so I got no pride at all
Gets so bad but I just keep coming back for more
I guess I just get off on that stuff
I'm thinking about taking some time
I'm thinking about leaving soon

I got some things I can't tell anyone
I got some things I just can't say
They're the kind of things no one knows about
I just need somebody to talk to me
I'm thinking about leaving tomorrow
I'm thinking about being on my own
I think I been wasting my time
I'm thinking about getting out
In all this time,
The bottom line's you don't know how much I feel
You say you see but I don't agree
You don't know how I feel
I'm just trying to get myself some gravity
You're just trying to get me to stay
Sometimes I sit here looking down upon Los Angeles
Sometimes I'm floating away
I'm thinking about breakin myself
I'm thinking about getting back home
I think I been waiting for way too long
I'm thinking about getting out

La canción 'Speedway' de Counting Crows nos sumerge en la profunda introspección de alguien que enfrenta una constante lucha interna. El narrador se siente nervioso hasta el punto de temblar, sin orgullo alguno, atrapado en un ciclo de autodestrucción del que parece no poder escapar...
