speeding cars

i saw death in the bottom of white hill road

careless try for a suicide note

i turned around and i closed my eyes

but the speeding cars never did collide

yeah the speeding cars never did collide

when did i get so lost inside my head

i'm only 22

but i'm going on dead

so i put my faith in my grandmother's god

piece by piece just lose all i've got

yeah piece by piece just lose all i've got

it's been a bad few weeks

but i'm still hoping i

can get back on my feet

i just need a little time

because my mother told me to loosen up and stop living in my head

it's been a bad few weeks

so i'll just drive myself to sleep instead

i think i left my mind somewhere near the line

i stain these walls with the blood from my hands

and i don't sleep since i got home

i fear the night will take me for all that i own

because i view my life through a telescope

that i built from a bottle on a slippery slope

you see i can't dream to save my life

but i'm holding on for a day that i might

it's been a bad few weeks

but i'm still hoping i

can get back on my feet

i just need a little time

because my mother told me to loosen up and stop living in my head

it's been a bad few weeks

so i'll just drive myself to sleep instead

because i'm overweight

overtired

and sick of trying to find

an answer in these darkened city bars

in the backrooms where we lose our hope

the drinks that turn good men to ghosts

in the end we're all left wondering who we are

i saw a death at the bottom of white hill road

a careless try for a suicide note

it's been a bad few weeks

but i'm still hoping i

can get back on my feet

i just need a little time

because my mother told me to loosen up and stop living in my head

it's been a bad few weeks

so i'll just drive myself to sleep instead

i saw a death at the bottom of white hill road

a careless try for a suicide note.
