about
This song depicts an angry, hurt person on a road trip home who was previously in a bad, long-distance work situation and had to leave it under difficult circumstances not under their control. It is written from the perspective of a boss or someone who is their superior or responsible for their work situation, which has also adversely impacted the worker’s personal life (and romantic relationship).
lyrics
One more stretch in the road
Guess another shot will do it
Stuck on what I was owed
Guess I’d better sit right through it
One more dollar a day
Guess it never was quite worth it
Stuck on what I would say
Every one of them deserves it
One more time on a hill
See a lover soon departed
One more line in a will
Wish it’d never even started
One more time of the day
Just another passing moment
One more word I could say
To another vile opponent
I get you, that you are reeling
“I hate you,” what you are feeling
One more weathered barn
There ain’t nothin’ that can repair it
One more night in a car
This ain’t nothin’, but I can’t bear it
One more mountain range
As I travel west on Easter
One more turn of the page
As the devils half-released her
I get you, that you are reeling
“I hate you,” what you are feeling
I get you, that you are reeling
“I hate you,” what you are feeling
I hit you, when you are kneeling
I met you, and you are dealing
