Quotable lyrics:
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs,
What's going on.



Wait a minute...

We're not indestructible.
Baby better get that straight
I think it's unbelievable,
How you give into the hands of fate.

Some things are worth fighting for,
Some feelings never die.
I'm not askin' for another chance,
I just wanna know why?

There's no easy way. There's no shortcut home.
There's no easy way out, givin' in can't be wrong.

I don't wanna pacify.
I don't wanna drag you down,
But I'm feelin like a prisoner.
Like a stranger in a no name town.

I see all the angry faces,
So afraid that could be you and me;
Talkin about what might have been,
Thinkin about what used to be.

There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.
Ther's no easy way out. Givin' in can't be wrong.

Baby, baby we can shed this skin...
We can know how we feel inside.
Instead of goin' down an endless road,
Not knowin if we're dead or alive.

Some things are worth fightin' for.
Some feelings never die.
I'm not askin for another chance,
I just wanna know why?

There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.
There's no easy way out givin in, givin in can't be wrong, no.
There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.
There's no easy way out, there's no easy no easy way out.

- This is not a fastlane anthem. This is the warning sign. This is what we're all running from.

I won't quote lyrics because the I'd have to quote the entire song.

Not really a music video, but the lyrics are nonetheless spot-on Fastlane minded - and sort of about going from the desert of desertion, where sidewalkers/slowlaners will tell you to give up, and about pushing through regardless..

Mr. Paul Stanley from Kiss:

They say it's over
But I have just begun to fight
It may look hopeless
But that's the moment from what's right

Someday, someway, somewhere
I'm gonna take you there
Where angels dare to fly

Some people wait forever
Some people just run out of time
Some people live in darkness
And give up just before the light

You (you), me (me)
No we won't back down
Let all the others wait
I want someday, someway, right now

The sun is risin'
I see confusion everywhere
The world that's dyin'
There's revolution in the air

Some people cry a river
But never see the other side
Some people bow down broken
And end up swallowed by the tide

I think the message in this one is important to keep in mind too, especially for the young members, as it seems the opinions of others appears to be a barrier for quite a few here in the forum. The best part of the whole song though imo is from 2:10 - 2:20 which says:

And I know
I may end up failing too.
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you.


NUMB

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me,
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you.
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you.
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take.

[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you.

And I know
I may end up failing too.
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you.

[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more aware.
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you.

[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

What would the fastlane sound like?

For me it is:
Make your own kind of music by Mama Cass Elliott

Juke Box Hero - if you don't know the song, take a few minutes to read the lyrics and listen to the Fastlane lessons in it: have a vision, make a decision, go all-in, figure things out as you go and keep at it everyday


http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/foreigner/jukeboxhero.html He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was one way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rockin'
Ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
Someday he's gonna make it to the top

Man, I cannot read/hear the words 'fast' 'lane' together in any other context than something 'CENTS'-related without getting a small shock of cognitive dissonance anymore.
