about

This up beat song is my “Castle on a Cloud.” At one point in this summer I ventured to Rochester for no reason after seeing Ryan’s wife and kids for the first time since the funeral. I don’t remember much; except for the joy that a sign to adopt a highway brought me. It’s easier to imagine a time in which you could be happy and proud then actually finding yourself.

lyrics

Now that Keith died there’s this void
Having a hard time to fill
So I decided to pack a bowl
Trying to distract myself
Hopped in the car on my day off
Death Grips yelling keeps me calm
U.S. 78 South
Blue sign tells me you’re alone
Called your number on my phone

Never expected to adopt a highway
No need for attention just a highway
Better than Boy Scout troop 789
No one’s highway is better than mine

Decided to name you Phil
Not after anyone I know
Just for fun
At least you won’t die like my fish
And if there’s road work the state will fix
Any superficial need

I’ll visit you at least five times a week X4

Never expected to adopt a highway
No need for attention just a highway
Better than Boy Scout troop 789
No one’s highway better than mine
