lyrics

The music loud, I sing to my dashboard indicator lights, the city paved with white
My body pounds, I clash the gears, I should not be behind the wheel, this whiskey in my ears

But I’m over fighting, and I’m over everybody lying
I’m tired of fighting, and I’m over everybody lying,
So be sure, I’m not asking you for anything, I won’t be asking you for anything

My empty head, the heavy limbs of the morning after night, my shaking fingers are silent
Don’t crowd me now, don’t ask the questions, yes, I know the answer’s clear, but I don’t wanna hear

But I’m over fighting, and I’m over everybody lying
I’m tired of fighting, and I’m over everybody lying,
So be sure, I’m not asking you for anything, I won’t be asking you for anything
I will tighten up my belt, lock the door behind myself,
if I’m alone, it’s better than being blue
it’s better than missing you

I will tighten up my belt, lock the door behind myself,
if I’m alone, it’s better than being blue
