The Bumpercar Blues

You sit there with your sad eyes and you ask me if there's something you can do

Well I hate to burst your bubble but there's nothing and you know that it's true

My mind is a desert and this conversations dry

It's hard to find an answer when you know you have to lie

At the thought of my helplessness my stomach starts to churn

If I caught on fire would you watch me burn

Would you watch me burn

I try to phase it out so I could extend my disbelief

I never knew someone so broken could bring another such relief

Well it's easier to understand when you don't know how I feel

This whole damn situation just seems so unreal

Time heals all wounds

There's not much of a choice

If I screamed till my vocal chords exploded you wouldn't hear my voice

You wouldn't hear my voice

I feel like I'm in that bumpercar and I just got knocked off the track

'cause I just put on the straw that broke the camel's back

Blinded by the light so I can't see three feet in front of me

It's easy to make a mistake when you've lost all sense of direction

I try to squirm away, but the grip just gets tighter

I know you're going to stomp my head into the ground

But could you be a little quieter

Could you be a little quieter

Oh

I'm trying to get some sleep here

Oh

I'm trying to get sleep, quiet, sleep

Please, thanks, quiet, sleeps, please, thanks, quiet, sleep, thanks

Please, thanks
