In this evocative track, Audioslave delves into themes of escape and self-discovery. The lyrics suggest a narrative where the protagonist views a relationship as confining, likening it to being chased by a cyclone in an open field. The repeated urging to "get yourself a car and drive it all alone" symbolizes a yearning for independence and the freedom to navigate one's own path. The vehicle serves as a metaphor for personal agency, urging the listener to move forward, away from past afflictions or relationships that have become stifling. This song resonates with anyone who feels the need to break away from their current circumstances and reclaim autonomy over their life journey 🚗.
Getaway Car
Lyrics
The first time I saw you
You were chasing down
A cyclone
All alone in a field
With rail yards and clovers
I kept rolling on and never thought
You'd wind up chasing me
Well settle down I won't hesitate
To hit the highway
Before you lay me to waste
Settle up and I'll help you find
Something to drive
Before you drive me insane
You're tired of walking and you
Loathe the ground
The sidewalk will barely
Touch your feet and life moves
Too slowly to hold you down
With ringing hands
You take it out on me
Well settle down I won't hesitate
To hit the highway
Before you lay me to waste
Settle up and I'll help you find
Something to drive
Before you drive me insane
Get yourself a car and drive it all alone
Get yourself a car and ride it on the wind
Get yourself a car and drive it all alone
Get yourself a car and ride it on the wind
Well settle down I won't hesitate
To hit the highway
Before you lay me to waste
Settle up and I'll help you find
Something to drive
Before you drive me insane
Get yourself a car and drive it all alone
Get yourself a car and ride it on the wind
Get yourself a car and drive it all alone
Get yourself a car and ride it on the wind
