lyrics

I don’t remember why I’m here
All of my power disappeared
How’d I miss the warning signs?
How can I deserve this?
Glared before you caught yourself
Dredged up all your deepest fears
Class As, knives and mental health
Angry Googling and tears
Should have left so long ago

Taken for a ride for the final time
You said “You can’t be, now that you can’t be mine”

Driving towards the sun, sun, sun
Sounds like you’re having fun, fun, fun
Singing with the radio
Rolling down the windows
Total stickler for the rules
Disconcerting silences
Said you have to have your tools
Dreams of wrath and violences
The proof is in the mood swing

Taken for a ride for the final time
You said “You can’t be, now that you can’t be mine”

How long have I been in this car?
I never knew you’d go this far
As I black out once again
I conjure a montage
Cut the brakes and slash the tyres
Punch the wall and slam the door
I always put out the fires
That won’t happen anymore
Glittering like violence

Taken for a ride for the final time
You said “You can’t be, now that you can’t be mine”
Taken for a ride for the final time
You said “You can’t be, now that you can’t be mine”
One last drive
One last drive
