lyrics

Moving so much faster
Waiting for my chance
To fall asleep behind the wheel
Hoping that you’ll call me
Leave a message at the beep
Need to know just how you feel
Hoping that you’ll call me
Or write me a letter
I know where you live these days
The light is turning yellow
But you think that you can make it
Didn’t know people died that way

Can’t wake up, there’s too much yelling in the room
All I’ve wondered, all these years
What am I to do?
Can’t wake up
What’s this fog I’m falling through

Hope you come back soon
It’s been a long vacation
Guess it was a one-way flight
Killed the engine
By never changing the oil
Now I only drive at night

Can’t wake up, there’s too much yelling in the room
All I’ve wondered, all these years
What am I to do?
Can’t wake up
What’s this fog I’m falling through

Why can’t you love me?
Like you did when we were kids
Back when I had never told a lie
Said you would call me
But you’d never come to visit
Can’t bear to look me in the eye

Can’t bear to look me in the eye [x4]

Can’t bear to look me in the eye
Turn Away
Can’t bear to look me in the eye
Walk away
Can’t bear to look me in the eye
Turn away
Can’t bear to look me in the eye

Walk away
