Cruise Control

[Verse 1]
Sitting all alone in his SUV
He’s thinking 'bout the last three weeks
In and out, he was gone without a sound
Yesterday he woke up late
And he drank the night straight through
Still half-drunk he left
Yes, he packed and hit the road

[Chorus]
Don’t know why she told me
I’m not welcome there
Can’t be my fault, baby
Why can’t you be clear?

[Post-Chorus]
Nameless then
Forgotten now

[Verse 2]
55 miles on cruise control
He’s thinking 'bout the next three weeks
Going home he wonders
"Oh, what will they think?"
Just a month ago he told them he was headed
South to start anew
No time for his hair to grow
He’s headed home too soon

[Chorus]
Don’t know why she told me
I’m not welcome there
Can’t be my fault, baby
Why can’t you be clear?

[Post-Chorus]
Nameless then
Forgotten now

[Bridge]
He’s drivin' down the interstate
And he says to himself
"I don’t need them anyway"

[Chorus]
Don’t know why she told me
I’m not welcome there
Can’t be my fault, baby
Why can’t you be clear?
Don’t know why they tell me
I’m not welcome there
It must be my fault, baby
Why can’t you be clear?

[Outro]
He went home that day
Alone ever since
