One More Pill

Lights on the horizon
Pedal to the floor
You're driving nowhere fast
To chase the past
But still it haunts you
Keep this old car moving
The spirits are at the door
Opiate eyes and summer skies
The gravel road it melts like pavement
With the dawn arriving
I can rest my bones
I see the mirror on the water
Looks like my daughter
Bring me something sweet
To eat
With the sun rising
I can be alone
Cracker Jack
Needle smack
Ten thousand miles a minute
Got me thinking
Got me thinking
I thought I told you that the sky was falling
And I predicted that you'd come crawling
Just put the pieces on the shelf for next year
Save the rain and your tears my dear
I can see for miles
Because the moon illuminates this lonely highway
I can see for miles
Because your smile illuminates my lonely eyelids
Driving thru the desert and the darkness drags me in
The blinding light of rage
Open my cage
I'm on front stage
Reflection of the moonlight
On my pale burning skin
I close my eyes
I visualize
Myself asleep and dreaming
Faces by the roadside
Whisper in my ear
Someone drives up next to me
And I scream at the top of my lungs
Can you hear me
I try to ignore them but they're coming in too clear
Cool, cold crazy souls all trying
They're all dead but they're not lying
No they're not lying
I thought I told you that the sky was falling
And I predicted you'd come crawling
Just put the pieces on the shelf for next year
Save the rain and your tears my dear
I can see for miles
Because the moon illuminates this lonely highway
I can see for miles
Because your smile illuminates my lonely eyelids
So alleviate the pain
Breathe again
I know you
Like a bridge over water
And you know me too
You're like the roller in the coaster
I know you
