The road—the highway—is one of Van Zandt’s favorite metaphors, one that he used repeatedly, always treating the road as though it were a natural, not a man-made, feature. ‘Highway Kind’ is Townes’ expression of his place in the universe, the familiar and highly imperfect place that he has accepted as his destiny. The song’s real subject is the Tao, the true way, where darkness and light share a dependent relationship. It’s easy to picture a weary traveler as he looks from the window of a car speeding to another gig in another town, feeling his destiny, seeing it literally in front of him, the stripes on the road flying toward him like lightning bolts, only to flash past in the blink of an eye, and then more of the same. And that’s what the traveler has come to crave, not only accepting his destiny, but relishing it. Or does he?
