(Da-da, da-da-da)
(Da-da-da, da-da-da)

You're a passing car on a one way street
Headed straight through the red lights where midnight and heartbreak meet
You're a photograph in a house of flames
Oh, you've played every card, but you know it's a losing game

We're running down a darker road
Where even angels fear to go
And stars fall like a lonely tear
When they're crashing through the atmosphere
It looked just like a dream come true
But love can lead you straight into
The thing that wrecks you
The thing that wrecks you

If I could change, I'd be good for you
Oh, I hate all the madness and the pain that I've put you through
It's not your fault (oh yes, it is), it's just how I am (I know what you're like)
Oh, you're a deer in the headlights and I'm driving as fast as I can

We're running down a darker road
Where even angels fear to go
Stars fall like a lonely tear
When they're crashing through the atmosphere
Yeah, it looked just like a dream come true
Oh, but love can lead you straight into
The thing that wrecks you
The thing that wrecks you
The thing that wrecks you

(It's the thing that wrecks you)
You're a passing car
(It's the thing that wrecks you)
On a one way street
(It's the thing that wrecks you)
(It's the thing that wrecks you)
(It's the thing that wrecks you)(the thing that wrecks you)
