The lights go down outside,
Before our cars collide
So we silhouette ourselves
In forty shades of fire

Do you know where this is leading?
I'll meet you there
On the other side of the crash
On the other side of the glass

All our friends are falling out,
Can't look us in the eye, or bear to hear that broken sound;
It happens when we're all alone inside,
in the middle of the night
I hear your voice and I feel ashamed
every time you say:
"Car crash came and car crash went,
So I went along with it..."
because the girl you love's not coming back
And you'll never be the same

Don't look away!
I need to know if this is real.
Don't look away.

And the hospital ward sleeps through the surgery,
hiding needles in the drawers for emergencies,
Where outside they wait in the pouring rain,
On the other side of the glass

Don't look away!
I need to know if this is real.
Don't look away.
I need to know, when will this end?
Don't look away....

The IV drips, the days drag on,
Adjust the light switch in the hall,
Maybe the X-Ray screen keeps it from getting dark,
The bulb burns out when it gets too hot

Keep crashing this car, over and over,
Keep crashing this car, over and over,
Keep crashing this car, over and over!
Keep crashing this car till it spins out of control,
So hold me close or I might disappear this time,
Out of control,
We fight currents in the water when we can't let go of the shore

We've lost control.
