no more perks

you've lost your high
and you're hitting new lows
coast isn't fast enough
since they called your bluff

the gears are stripped
and the clutch is burned
the brake doesn't work
and there's no more perks

the signs aren't English
the lights just flash
the arrows aren't clear
as to how you get here

no satellite for GPS
thought you knew the way
so you didn't take a map
not enough gas for one more lap

running out of options
once the tables turned
doesn't matter now
the why's or how's
