Lyrics
VERSE 1
I feel like I've been driving for years
The destination was always so clear
Chasing dreams and fortune down the line
Turns out they were mirages in my mind
VERSE 2
She was smart enough to know my dreams were fake
I kept chasing harder that was my mistake
I thought that all the things I won would make her stay
But the things I had won just made her leave one day
CHORUS
What is that up on the road ahead
A house full of gold and an empty bed
Trinkets and trophies that mattered to me
But they were the anchors I could not see
BRIDGE
I let go of what I should have held on to
And chased every hollow dream I was drawn to
Maybe I should have seen my empty cup
I might have seen what it was giving up
SOLO
VERSE 3
And after all this time the gold is gone
The quiet came and I learned to carry on
I hope someday she might just see
The man she knew is no longer me
CHORUS
What is that up on the road ahead
A house full of gold and an empty bed
Trinkets and trophies that mattered to me
But they were the anchors I could not see
