lyrics

The way you drive, I dunno
it's like you come alive
and the weight of the world
is just another burden that you leave behind
But a trail of broken hearts
makes a sad parade
Why can't you just settle down
Are you so afraid

Well, I remember when the thunder struck
your eyes were wild and your
body shook
And, after so many miles
I wonder how you look
and if you still value what you took from me

Write 'em down
another name, another one horse town
They can't find you
if you don't want to be found
They can't find you
but you've gotta go underground
They can't find you
but you can't make a sound

(chorus)

I wanted to give
you needed to take
You needed to sleep
so I stayed awake
You had a thirst
I thought I could slake
I had a heart
didn't think it would break

(chorus)

So ride on.

(Pitchfork (8.0)) ... more
