Who's at the Wheel
4HIM · Obvious [1998]
Eyeing every exit'sign
I wanna take control
Running this race through my mind
A constant struggle just to sit on the side
My own ambition tells me I gotta drive
But the key that turns my soul
Tells me who's King of this road
CHORUS
Who keeps our life between the lines?
Tell me who's at the wheel?
When left is wrong who steers it right?
Tell me who's at the wheel?
Here in this great unknown
Traveling day and night
These wheels are not our own
We're just along for the ride
Life is a journey of the choices We make
I'll rediscover every mile of the way
That there's only one way home
It's riding with the King of this road
REPEAT CHORUS
These wheels are turning faster than they ever have before
The lights are flashing
Warning signs that we just can't ignore
we got the pedal to the floor
Life is a journey of the choices we make
Now rediscover every mile of the way
That there's only one way home
It's riding with the King of this road
REPEAT CHORUS
Who's at the Wheel
