Album: Letters To The President (2004)

Like A Race Car

broken words said to me/
these broken mirrors make it hard to see/
does anyone feel the same?/
i need some help, i need some change/ broken dreams and broken hearts/
you broke my trust right from the start/
how am i supposed to feel/
when nothing's ever real?//
if you want me try to take me/
on the inside just like a racecar//
carry on, but daddy's gone/
tell me what did i do wrong/
i need your help because i don't know/ take it slow look out below//
and i'm traveling past the ever-growing grafitti on the over-pass/
i wave to everybody while i fly on past/ cause this racecar was built to last//
if you want me try to take me/
on the inside just like a racecar/
cut the corners if you'd like to/
take me away/
i want to but i can't let go//
it's six in the morning here/
i lay awake i'm waiting for my mind to clear up/
so i can rewind and just count myself to sleep/
and every day i want to climb to a new height/
my life is like the making of a long ride/
i started the ignition such a long time ago//
if you want me try to take me/
on the inside just like a racecar/
cut the corners if you'd like to /
take me away/
i want to but i can't let go//
i'll let you drive, i'll let you drive/
i'll let you drive, i'll let you take me away/
