All the comments I read all seem to be wrong...or at least to compared to how I read this song.
I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
A relationship where he just a girl's rolling wheels is one like you would have in high school or college for a short stint that was fun but which ultimately ended. A short term enjoyable trip (rolling wheels or magic carpet ride.)
He is saying he wants to be and is her everything-->a highway or a sky.
Then he says friends and liars and don't wait for me and he put millions of miles on his feet to get away and forget about her, but then he says he...
And still too close to you
I feel
He is saying he still has feelings and wants to be with her, but not just for a fling for whatever short term or more casual relationship the girl had wanted.
then he says...
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night
Not your blowing wing is more reference to not being just a short term whatever to her in his mind. He is the lighting or the autumn moon (husband\father\long term relationship wanting)
@Acrobatc101 I wonder if Chris C is speaking of a girl that actually thought of him like that, if so, WHat a Crazzzyy girl!!! .....IMO, Chis is like a God, and I would make him feel that way, EVERY MINUTE:) lol...

@Acrobatc101 I really kinda disagree with this, particularly the last part. A flash of lighting doesnt really last very long, nor does an autumn moon or blowing wind. The night is the only thing that is permanent and sure to be. :o

@Acrobatc101 So many of us have that one person, that we couldn’t be with, for whatever reason, whom we have been in love with, sometimes for our entire adult lives. And there is a day when you realize that, and the regret is overwhelming. You may even love others during this time, and maybe realize that every day of your life you have missed out on your true love. This is the kind of depression that would cause us to want to check out on drugs, inspire incredible profound music about this love, possibly the whole time not even realizing...

Imagine this pain. I have experienced this, and I would put money that this is what happened to Chris. It is the saddest thing in an otherwise amazing livelihood that can happen. I’m convinced this was Chris’ legacy, and the reason for his demise. I think this song is a more direct cry out for her. I sense this from other lyrics written by him, almost seems to kind of hide them a bit, even if that is subconscious. It is deep, complicated, and tragic. Love is a mother fuker....but the lesson perhaps is to make sure all who you truly love in life, absolutely know it.

Only person to get the meaning right so far.
