This song came to my mind over and over this weekend. My best friend came to stay the weekend with her guy that is totally wrong for her. They already want different things such as marriage vs. living together. He recently moved in with her and I see the signs that she is letting him drive the relationship and make all the major life decisions like marriage/moving to another state, etc...while she just goes with the flow even if she is not sure that's what she wants or dislikes it even. She refuses to at least give an opinion or anything because she fears he'll leave if she puts anything resembling a demand or request. Made me instantly think of the line...
"You're being took for a ride".
Some people tend to just lets things happen TO them instead of making tought choices. Which is what I get from this song. That feeling of moving and change happening to you...but not being in control of it. Just letting yourself get carried along like a passenger in a car...not the driver. Which is what I think that line...
"Don't fall asleep at the wheel"
means. Sometimes your life changes direction because of things/situations out of your control...but sometimes your life changes direction because you give all control to someone else.
