Five Degrees Below Zero Ray Thaves at 2am sitting towards the back of a Greyhound He sits next to an overweight lady with metal braces on both her legs, and she sits there coughing He tries to just look out the window into the desert where it's 5 degrees below zero Having to move back into his uncle's house in Las Vegas with no money, no apartment, no motorcycle, his music collection gone, everything's been pawned A guy behind him keeps getting up and going to the bathroom says he's been up for days and the speed's still showing Ray tries to just stare out the window, snow covers everything and it's 5 degrees below zero Above him is a sea of stars unseen because of the weather He tries not to look at his reflection in the window, And there's two guys in fron of him who are quietly drinking off a bottle And he can feel that feel, feel that feel still pulling A girl across the aisle is giving herself an ink pen tattoo her kid sits next to her and her kid is crying He finally gets up and walks to the front of the bus, to the bus driver "Pull Over! Pull Over!" he yells at the bus driver, and the bus driver he just pulls over He gets off the bus in a T-shirt and leaves his coat and all his things aboard as the bus pulls away he walks out into the desert He can see the city lights in the distance so he walks into the opposite direction Swimming in a sea of rage that dissipates with the cold But hours now have passed and he doesn't know which way to go He tries to find the highway but snow covers everything and it's 5 degrees below zero ------------------------------------------------------------
