The Road to Ruin
These lyrics are about a woman who has lost her way. She is distracted by all the sights and sounds of the highway. She's always trying to decide which path to take. Always seeming to be choosing the wrong road. Have a safe trip!

Verse 1.
His sway and swagger.
Good looks. High caliber.
The polite type.
Well-to-do.
His smile in passing.
I'm his for the asking.
Oh, if he asks,
would I leave you?
Chorus.
On the road
to ruin.
Let you go again.
Let my wanting win.
Gravel road
bruises.
I'm unraveling.
Can't stop traveling.
The road to ruin.
Verse 2.
His stare and stammer.
High walls. High barriers.
The shy type.
So subdued.
His two-step dancing.
My come-hither glancing.
Just one dance.
Maybe two.
Chorus.
On the road
to ruin.
Let you go again.
Let my wanting win.
Gravel road
bruises.
I'm unraveling.
Can't stop traveling.
The road to ruin.
Bridge.
The last thing I wanted to do was to hurt you.
Never intended to cruise then desert you.
Trying my best to stay up. To stop falling.
But it's calling.
It's calling.
Take me.
Ride me.
Turn the next curve
and you'll find me.
Detours
entice.
Are you aware
of the toll price?
Off road.
Top down.
Four on the floor.
Hear your heart pound.
Next stop,
swap shop.
Nothing of you
left to tow.
Verse 3.
His lift and laughter.
He's got what I'm after.
The fun type.
No issues.
He listens. He teases.
His kisses are pleasing.
Oh please, help me
to choose.
Chorus.
On the road
to ruin.
Let you go again.
Let my wanting win.
Gravel road
bruises.
I'm unraveling.
Can't stop traveling.
The road to ruin.
