No Headlights
from Pipe Dreams by jakefeeneymusic
lyrics
love is safe in my soul, keep it in a cup half full
when I pour it down your drain, you never overflow
and it feels like I’m in driving rain
with no headlights, only sounds and shapes
those eyes put me in this space
once again
we fly low, we fly low
there goes my urgency
“listen, it’s all he ever had”
they said as they helped to breathe
sent me out to give it all up again
but then another view took a plan that I knew
so I float on spinning
and maybe she’ll see
she’s passed me time and time again
and she don’t even know it
when will it reveal itself
she smiles ahead
yeah she’s miles ahead
there goes your sympathy, didn’t take too long
quick to draw fears come to life
and long nights prove that I’m on my own
yes belief, it can be wicked
and maybe she’ll see
she’s passed me time and time again
and she don’t even know it
when will it reveal itself
she smiles ahead
yeah she’s miles ahead
when I pour it down your drain, you never overflow
and it feels like I’m in driving rain
with no headlights, only sounds and shapes
those eyes put me in this space
once again
we fly low, we fly low
there goes my urgency
“listen, it’s all he ever had”
they said as they helped to breathe
sent me out to give it all up again
but then another view took a plan that I knew
so I float on spinning
and maybe she’ll see
she’s passed me time and time again
and she don’t even know it
when will it reveal itself
she smiles ahead
yeah she’s miles ahead
there goes your sympathy, didn’t take too long
quick to draw fears come to life
and long nights prove that I’m on my own
yes belief, it can be wicked
and maybe she’ll see
she’s passed me time and time again
and she don’t even know it
when will it reveal itself
she smiles ahead
yeah she’s miles ahead
