Trucks And Trains Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Airman1415 

Cover art for Trucks And Trains lyrics by Alkaline Trio

This song is about feeling stuck in your life, and the monotony of being unhappy with your current situation.

Hence all the talk about the grass on the other side, looking up, and the various references to methods of travel and the repetition of them leaving town to "somewhere better than here"

@Airman1415

I agree with your interpretation; I feel that it is much more apt than the interpretation that it's about death/suicide. Not every Alkaline song is about killing yourself... though most of these interpretations were written by edgester teens from the early 2000's.
