Drive

You say you're sorry
I say go to hell
You reach for me, baby please
I pull away, grab my keys
Hop in the car and leave

Ignition starts, hands on the wheel, deep breath
As my foot hits the gas
Tires spin on the dirt
Only a cloud of dust
Seen through the rear-view
Turn on the radio
But the song only reminds me of you
So I roll the windows down

To drown out the sound

And drive

Drive

Into the dark

Cold night

Drive

To a new place

To a new time

Drive

Where the control

Is not his or yours

But mine, all mine

Drive

Somewhere the tears don't fall

And the words don't hurt anymore

Drive

Until everything's gone

Until there's no more you and I

Drive

I pull over on

A road, dark and quiet

Clock on the dash

Reads a quarter to midnight

Cell phone rings

Four missed calls and a text from you

Come home now or I'm coming to find you

Ignition starts, hands on the wheel, deep breath

As my foot hits the gas

Tires spin on the dirt

Only a cloud of dust

Seen through the rear-view

Phone keeps ringing

Each call from you

So I roll the windows down

Toss the phone out

And drive

Drive

Into the dark

Cold night

Drive

To a new place

To a new time

Drive

Where the control

Is not his or yours

But mine, all mine

Drive

Somewhere the tears don't fall

And the words don't hurt anymore

Drive

Until everything's gone

Until there's no more you and I

Drive

I'm done with the constant heartbreak

Done with the lies and mistakes

I'm tired of living my life

In someone else's hands

Tired of living in the shadows

Of someone else's dreams and plans

Today is where it all ends

No more you can and can't

Ignition starts, hands on the wheel, deep breath

As my foot hits the gas

Tires spin on the dirt

Only a cloud of dust

Seen through the rear-view

Turn on the radio

The song no longer about you

So I roll the windows down

Turn up the sound

And drive

Drive

Into the dark

Cold night

Drive

To a new place

To a new time

Drive

Where the control

Is not his or yours

But mine, all mine

Drive

Somewhere the tears don't fall

And the words don't hurt anymore

Drive

Until everything's gone

Until there's no more you and I

Drive
