DRIVE RIGHT ON THROUGH

Yeah I've been there

I've been down that road

To the town of negativity

Where nothing good can grow

And we all wish that we'd never

We all want to turn back time

We all dream of a better

Set of stepping stones in life

~~~*Chorus*~~~

No one wants to flirt with failure

No one wants to dance with pain

Celebrate their disappointments 

Or brag about their shame

The highway it is changing

And your route depends on you

Do not take that exit

And if you do...

Drive right on through

~~*~~

The dark foreboding exit

To a deep depressive town

No positive reactions

It was built to drag you down

You can bypass it with laughter

Fight through your despair 

Drive right on through

You don't want to go there

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~
Pain is strong... but so are you
Do not choke... drive right on through
No time to waste... Inhale that faith

And if you find yourselves lost

Sometimes we do....

Drive right on through

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

No one wants to flirt with failure

No one wants to dance with pain

Celebrate their disappointments 

Or brag about their shame

The highway it is changing

And your route depends on you

Do not take that exit

And if you do...

Drive right on through

~~*~~

~~*Finale*~~

The destination's easy

I won't mask the truth

But life's too short to live there

Drive right on through...

~~~*~~
