[Verse 1]
Everybody's clinging to the upside
Can't they see it's upside down?
Better buckle up
We're in for a rough ride now
Cruising through dark rain
Sharp pain lives in our veins
Is that the holy light or headlights in our lane?
Settle down
Deep breath, pull yourself together now
Don't swerve
Don't blink, don't bring the devil out
Duct tape covers up the rear view mirror
When the stuck brake grinds
I hear you clearer
Will this road end? oh no, there's no end
The gates been opened
Clinging to your fate
Your fate's been holding by a clothespin
Someone's on our tail
The tank's almost outta gas
No one taught me how to drive
No one taught me how to crash
Ask the deck of cards "what's the deal?"
I've been banging rocks together
Trying to reinvent the steering wheel
Real funny how its all coming back to me slow
But it freezes up the faster we go
Should've never left the factory doors
But it did now I'm practically broke
Asked my pocket lint ‘how you gonna pay for that'
All my drinks try to hide their faces in a paper bag
It's a long ride back from the wrong side of tracks
Lose the map ‘cause i'm wiser than that
The almighty dollar meets the unholy weapon
Karma's at your door for the collection
Singing:
[Chorus]
Return my body to the dirt where it came
Strip me of my goods and my name
Stretch me on the tracks for the midnight train
We can't recognize the darkness till we recognize the flame
[Verse 2]
All the voices in your head got your vision painted red
So you brake, brake, brake!
We flew forward and drew closer to other side
That's never been my choice to make, make, make!
We know people who know people who sew evil seeds
The ego bleeds and breaks, breaks, breaks!
The hearts and minds and vital nerves
The suicidal urge
One of us is bound to take, take, take!
Me out the frame
The rust stains cover the name
Smother the flame what you running from
Discover the pain
Glance over at the pa**enger we're one in the same
Rolling with no aim
Only got each other to blame
What i wouldn't give to rest and park
But i'm driving on a question mark
Bad directions and arrested hearts
Hanging out the window
Will it end? no, that's the bestest part
Never ending night drive
Trying to keep my tires in the white lines
But they keep leaning to the right side
Gotta keep my bloodshot eyes open
Looking like a mugshot and whatnot
Underneath a sky, broken
The black air is clearer than you'd expect
So now all my gla** got a mirror-effect
I can see my past sins plus the here and next
But the disease will take years to detect
[Chorus]
Return my body to the dirt where it came
Strip me of my goods and my name
Stretch me on the tracks for the midnight train
We can't recognize the darkness till we recognize the flame
