lyrics

The engine stalls
With a shudder and whine
The sun sinks down
Like a muddy wheel
Our words spin round
And round and round
Digging deep
A screech in the night
Fumbling for a light
Without you

Why's this so hard?
I can't believe the things you said to me
When we were in the car
I never thought this could end
I never thought we could be
Past tense

Give it a shove
I'll try to accelerate
From this impasse
If it's not too late
Rain streaming down
Arms that forgot
How to hold
They only know
How to push heavy things
Away

Why's this so hard?
I can't believe the things you said to me
When we were in the car
I never thought this could end
I never thought we could be
Past tense

Waiting on you
I'm waiting on you

Why's this so hard?
I can't believe the things you said to me
When we were in the car
I never thought this would end
I never thought we would be
Past tense
