Stuck in the Jam

[Verse]
Staring at the brake lights glow red with despair
This two-lane highway feels more like a snare
My patience is leaking like a broken tape reel
Stuck in this cage I forget how to feel
[Verse 2]
The radio's static is a maddening hum
Behind me a blast of some car horn mayhem
I'm tapping the dash with a beat born of rage
This endless commute’s just a steel-tainted cage
[Chorus]
I'm screaming in the void as the meter runs dry
My car's not moving but my temper's sky high
Why's freedom confined to this rubber-lit stream
Stuck in the jam turning life to a dream
[Verse 3]
A kid in a back seat makes faces at me
While I'm a grown dude losing dignity
The clock taunts my soul counting every lost hour
This whole traffic scene's got too much power
[Bridge]
And yet there's a part of me caught in the breeze
A daydream of highways where I’m finally free
But freedom’s a mirage down this endless line
This circle repeats till the end of time
[Chorus]
I'm screaming in the void as the meter runs dry
My car's not moving but my temper's sky high
Why's freedom confined to this rubber-lit stream
Stuck in the jam turning life to a dream
