Dusty Stop Sign

[Verse 1] There’s a place down in Nevada a little empty lot I used to pass it my way home After I punch the clock Worry-filled and happy-pilled Mind racin’ with thoughts Then looked up at a dusty sign It just said STOP Stop… Stop… Stop… [instrumental break] [Verse 2] Like silence after train wreck Such a simple thing One legged guru whispered Rusty therapy Breath held, closed my eyes Embracing apathy Wisdom from an octagon Of road safety Stop… Stop… Stop… [bridge] Saw my mom when I got home And told her to stop Knocked on my boss’s front door And told him to stop Saw my buddy at the bar And told him to stop Saw some kiddos looking bored And told them to stop Stop… Stop… Stop… [Verse 3] Some people can’t appreciate That kinda talk Can’t blame them for their ignorance When advice flops One day they’ll understand That they’re all lost Then we can all just take the time Take a breath and stop Stop… Stop… Stop… [outro]
