Almost home Check your mirrors cause It would be unfortunate If somehow this lane change Became life-changing If you hydroplaned From the puddles Accumulated from pouring rain So... Slow this car down To keep this love alive We are swirving, we are turning Without the will to survive Another dark night The tires spinning through the rain Reminds me my hopes are rushing down the drain The radio is reporting a sighting of mars But the cloud cover's too thick to even see the stars The stars that used to shine so bright for us Well, 'they must've died' the message the clouds send But it takes awhile for them to stop lighting the sky I guess that tells you just how long it's been I'm home I close the door SongtexteAnd collapse on the floor Where we sat and talked For hours on end Before our moonlit walks We'd take and say "My friend... where have you been?" and "let us catch up" I can't stand seconds I don't see you Tell me everything Cause I love you And that star exemplifies just how much The pitter-patter I hear on my rooftop Reminds me just how much memories cost The T.V. weatherman is on and rambling About cold fronts, record-lows and jetstreams He doesn't even mention it's the first starless night We've seen in so long, last time I wasn't yet alive In a world accustomed to everything going right But is it fair to assume 'the strong always survive'? Tonight the only thing you really told me Was the silence on the drive home And me feeling alone in the front seat Wanting to hug you like the car hugs the road The only conversation was the rain drops Against the window, telling me it'll be over soon I can sleep til noon, but I still know The same problem will shine through the window When I wake up, and face me everywhere I go There is... no... such... thing As an easy solution No panacea for our problems No filter for all this pollutition So slow this car down To keep this love alive We are swirving, we are turning Without the will to survive Another night like tonight Aus Songtexte Mania
