Drive
Danger Scene Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can you give me the green light
Can I just not go home
'Cause it's where I think too much
And always end up feeling alone
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
The same routine
And I know it's killing me
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
And I know and I know
I drive my car to figure it out
Think about my mistakes
Just keep telling myself things will work out
Can I just drive all night
I think I just blew a red light
Can I just shut it down
'Cause there's trouble coming up
And I think I'd rather just leave town
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
And I know it's killing me
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
I'm doing the same things
The same routine
And I know and I know
I drive my car to figure it out
Think about my mistakes
Just keep telling myself things will work out
But I'm driving to her house again tonight
Yeah I'm driving to her house again tonight
Oh I'm driving to her house again tonight
I know
But I'm driving to her house again tonight
Yeah I'm driving to her house again tonight
Oh I'm driving to her house again tonight
I know
Tonight I'll take this road to its end
But in the morning I'll have to come back again
Tonight I'll take this road to its end
But in the morning I'll come back again
I drive my car to figure it out
Think about my mistakes
Just keep telling myself things will work out
I drive my car to figure it out
I drive my car to figure it out
