Only all of them, but I suspect 'Tired Road'.

That's the one. What does 'nightblind' mean, anyway?

Get there yourself was my point. :P
The lateness of the hour obscuring one's perception of a situation.

See, that wasn't so hard. You didn't have to quote Roland Barthes at me first

It was an ego thread, but go ahead.

Catapult
Skiing down the slippery slope
Of shattered hopes. Living in the fast lane, Life won't be the same. She went up top, Couldn't ever stop The hi's, then lies and goodbyes Down the road... [Chorus]: WHY DID IT START? HOW DID IT START? WHEN WILL IT STOP? A catapult that goes on and on. She sees You, She needs You- Why won't she call? A leads to B to C to D again; Someday it's gonna stop, But who knows when? She sees her mistake, But she's gonna fall. She's going to the edge- How far to lose it all? [Chorus] Bridge: Sometimes we don't know how to stop. Speeding reckless, can't see light above. We've got to reach out, hold it... [Chorus]
