lyrics

lyrics:

Things just haven’t been the same
Now that you’re not around
I know I saw you just last week
But God damn I feel so weak right now
And in my head you live a million miles away
And then I remember that I have a car
And gas is pretty cheap on this side of town

It’s a long long drive
To get to your place
From where I live
And all the cars on the way
Are in the passing lane
They’re all going 60
But I’ve gotta be pushing 95
I never could go all the way
Maybe this time I’ll give it a try

That’s when the lights flash
That’s when the sirens get real loud
And I hear them calling
They won’t shut up until I turn around
I wanna scream I’m sorry
But God knows what I’m sorry for
If I get off at this exit
I can make it home by 4

Then I see the sign
And yours looks just like mine

Now I’m having second thoughts
About this whole routine
Nothing takes familiar shape
Except the ghastly asphalt sea
And holy shit I feel a
rough one coming on
Nothing much to do for now
Just gonna have to wait until it’s gone

It’s a long long drive
To get to your place from where I live
and all of the cars on the way
have got their high beams on
and it’s so damn bright now
it’s been so long since I’ve been outside
I might go all the way
Cause if I can’t I’ll die

That’s when the lights flash
That’s when the sirens get real loud
And I hear them calling
They won’t shut up until I turn around
I wanna scream I’m sorry
But God knows what that means anymore
If I get off at this exit
You won't see me anymore

Then I see the sign
And yours looks just like mine
