Lost Highways is somewhat of an autobiographical work that deals with the search for self. The collection of songs fit together as a travelogue of self-discovery. The album details a traveler's struggle to find happiness and peace of mind in a crazy and demanding world. He employs imagination, social interaction, and travel, in an attempt to find the answers to the questions that trouble him. All of the songs convey a sense of restlessness and motion.
Wanderlust:
An impulse to travel; Restlessness combined with a sense of adventure.
