Empty soul

The open road is callin'
I'm headed for the setting sun
I couldn't help but thinking
What the world is running from
Seems everybody's running
Everybody's hoping they're gonna get it right
Cause everybody wants it
Everybody's holding on just a little too tight

So we gotta try
Looking inside, it's been a long time
You gotta try
And ask yourself why
But take it easy, it's all right
Cause the things that you want
You gotta leave them behind
Cause you've already got
What you're trying to find

The hours they been passin'
I pulled off for a bite to eat
And when the waitress asked me
\"Hey man, what'll it be\"
I said \"Everybody's hungry\"
Everybody's tryin' to fill an empty soul
And even though they know it
Everybody's holding on when they oughta let go So we gotta try
Looking inside, it's been a long time
You gotta try
And ask yourself why
But take it easy, it's all right
Cause the things that you want
You gotta leave them behind
Cause you've already got
What you're trying to find
