Chris Eshbaugh - Stoplights Lyrics




I drive through the night to be searching
For something to help me start turning
I point to the sky 'cause I think I'll go faster
But I don't realize I'm not looking for my master
I stare hopefully down these lanes
Wishing that things will finally change
I want to be aware of new discoveries
But I should worry about these tires under me

But I wake up to this new reality
Of stoplights all around me
I think to myself, "is this what I'm looking for?"
'Cause if I turn here, I won't be on this road anymore

As I grip this taunting steering wheel
You make me kneel as I try to feel
Your presence behind the essence
Of the road's beautifully dark presents
But I take my time on these decisions
Knowing that these houses block my vision
Sometimes I close my eyes because it seems far
But my destination isn't determined by my car

Please travel with full intention
But these signs are here to guide you

Quite a few times throughout your life
You'll come across a major turning point
But the more you avoid those evil eyes
Your family will say "hey you're learning boy!"
Your beloved's always taking up space
Blocking you like they're up in your face
But if they weren't next to you giving directions
You would be lost in this desperate section
These are the people that are willing
To give up their time for you
They ride for you, die for you,
All the time alongside with you
Friends of yours are passengers, kindly there to help
Prevent you from disaster, so likely treat them well

I promise you
Don't give up just yet

The moon is waxing, check your facts He
Knows you like no one else, you're lacking
The time and faith the car is slacking
While your doubt waits in the backseat
Every movement it is tracking
But you can't listen to it friend
You must trust me
It searches through the window
Giving you info on your sins though
Your eyes are fixed on the windshield
And lies are only things you feel
Hating the life you were given
The situation you are livin'
Why dwell on your personal silence
When you know that you can sing?

But I wake up to this new reality
Of stoplights all around me
I think to myself, "is this what I'm looking for?"
'Cause if I turn here, I won't be on this road anymore

As I grip this taunting steering wheel
You make me kneel as I try to feel
Your presence behind the essence
Of the road's beautifully dark presents
But I take my time on these decisions
Knowing that these houses block my vision
Sometimes I close my eyes because it seems far
But my destination isn't determined by my car

The only way to reach my senses
Is if you told me my dear friend is
The saving light who lyrically left his
Bestest message just to find me
The only way to reach my senses
Is if you told me my dear friend is
The saving light who lyrically left his
Bestest message just to find me

As I grip this taunting steering wheel
You make me kneel as I try to feel
Your presence behind the essence
Of the road's beautifully dark presents
But I take my time on these decisions
Knowing that these houses block my vision
Sometimes I close my eyes because it seems far
But my destination isn't determined by my car

Please travel with full intention
But these signs are here to guide you
