Driving faster in my car Falling farther from just what we are Smoke a cigarette and lie some more These conversations kill Falling faster in my car Time to take her home, Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride it leaves today No conversation Time to take her home her dizzy head is Conscience laden Time to wait too long, to wait too long To wait too long Too much walking shoes worn thin Too much trippin' and my soul's worn thin Time to catch her ride it leaves today Her name is what it means Too much walking shoe worn thin Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride it leaves today No conversation Time to take her home her dizzy head is Conscience laden Time to wait too long, to wait too long To wait too long Conversations kill Conversations kill Conversations kill Time to take her home, Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride it leaves today No conversation Time to take her home her dizzy head is Conscience laden Time to wait too long, to wait too long To wait too long Conversations kill Conversations kill Conversations kill
