I am not your autumn moon, I am the night

The web - it truly is; wikipedia makes it even more evident. Its one of the sites I have come to like; admire even - now that doesn't happen too often! How does someone who set out searching the lyrics for a song end up reading the history of Cuba?

Audioslave, it says, was the first American rock band permitted to perform in Cuba. They never made up a video for their very kewl song - I am the highway - they just used the footage from the 'Live in Cuba' concert.


I am the Highway - Audio Slave
Pearls and swine bereft of me
Long and weary my road has been
I was lost in the cities
Alone in the hills
No sorrow or pity for leaving I feel

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the Highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky

Friends and liars don't wait for me
'Cause I'll get on all by myself
I put millions of miles
Under my heels
And still too close to you
I feel

I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night, the night..

Yeeah
I am not your rolling wheels
I am the Highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
But I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night, the night..
