Its been a long, quiet drive home from where I have just been.
The lights, the roads familiar once seem almost foreign to me.
So as the dashboard shines a moment that I think Ive seen
A flash, a sound, a distance not so far off - not so far off.

And then the clarity in me rolls up playing dead, but enough sun gets through
For me to hear the voices singing I turn to scream back: This is all that I could take. Ive never known much more than that, but now youre louder than ever before.

These are the pills I take to fall asleep. Im not as restless as you think that I should be.
I am numb silent motionless with hands folded over me. These are the pills I take to fall asleep. I am numb.

The second time around is always better than you thought it would be. Her eyes are brighter than the stars. Just like in that movie, with that song that moves me I hear it playing: This is all that I could take. Ive never known much more than that, but now youre louder than ever before.
