Forward — but slower. Not the past. Just the parts of it worth keeping. The road's still there. We just stopped walking it. [Final Chorus - full band, arriving late and hitting hardest, choir-sized] Old roads, still there Under the highway, under the noise, under the glare Old roads, still lead somewhere Slower, harder, worth the drive, worth the care We don't need to go back to go home We just need to remember the road [Outro] Old roads. Still ours.
