Driving home I was miles away When I thought that I saw your face Late at night, a lightning flash Put reality in it's place I never saw the warning signs 'Til it was too late I'm a casualty A victim of my own circumstance A casualty a hopeless case That never stood a chance at all I never knew what hit me Like somebody put out the light I was going crazy Couldn't tell if it was day or night I must have lost direction A simple hit and run I'm a casualty A victim of my own circumstance A casualty a hopeless case That never stood a chance at all Out of control on a one way street Feeling myself beginning to slide Out of my head too blind to see That you were there just for the ride Living this life in tragedy Why did this happen to me I'm a casualty A victim of my own circumstance A casualty a hopeless case That never stood a chance at all I never stood a chance I'm a casualty I'm a casualty I'm a casualty
