Drive

(album: Skeletons - 2010)

If you cut me, I will bleed
just enough to get your attention
here I am, I'm on display
pass me by without a mention
you never said this would be easy
but does it have to be so hard
my eyes are burning, my head is dizzy
a thousand miles doesn't seem so far

drive a thousand miles, it doesn't seem so far
what you leave behind makes up who you are

drive, just drive
roll the windows down and feel alive
all night, all right
I'll drive until the morning light
I need the silence to escape your violent eyes
just drive away, just drive

spend an hour or a day
just enough to get my attention
as the wolves begin to play
here's a knife to cut the tension
all the nights seem dark and dreary
the morning sun begins with hope
sometimes I wonder if you can hear me
or have I reached the end of the road

drive a thousand miles, it doesn't seem so far
what you leave behind makes up who you are

drive, just drive
roll the windows down and feel alive
all night, all right
I'll drive until the morning light
I need the silence to escape your violent eyes
just drive away, just drive

my voice is shaking from the risk I'm taking
I can't stop driving, the sun is rising

drive, just drive
roll the windows down and feel alive
all night, all right
I'll drive until the morning light
drive, just drive
roll the windows down and feel alive
all night, all right
I'll drive until the morning light
I need the silence to escape your violent eyes
just drive away, just drive
