Musical Interlude For A Useless Heart
You tell me I can't slow down
You tell where I've gotta be
I speed into the darkness
But I swear that I can't see a thing in front of me
You know it's true
I'm not driving anymore
I can't keep up with you
You're closing in behind me
Well I've got headlights in my eyes
Don't you get too close to me
Can't you see that we'll collide and end up casualties
There's just no room
I'm not driving anymore
I can't keep with you
So leave me on my own
Run me down and race away from me
I've got nowhere to go to
And I don't think I can get back on my feet --
Back on my feet
You came right out of nowhere
Eyes wide and terrified
And I can't put my brakes on
And I can't swerve to save your life 'cause then I'll lose control
And I can't choose
I'm not driving anymore
I can't keep up with you
Get me out of harm's way
Can't you see I'm paralyzed
Can't you see I'm through
I'm not driving anymore -- I can't keep up with you
Can't keep up with you
I'm unfit for consumption
I don't know how to play my part
I swear I'm all alone in this thing
I'm a blind man driving in my car into oblivion
Let it come soon
I'm not driving anymore
I can't keep up with you
