The Thing That Wrecks You

You're a passing car

On a one way street

Heading straight through the red lights where midnight and heartbreak meet

You're a bird in flight

To a house in flames

Yeah, you've played every card but you know you it's a losing game

Yeah, you're running down a darkened road

Where even angels might not go

Some stars have a long glow

Let it pull you like a song you know

It might look like a dream come true

But it only leads you straight into

The thing that wrecks you

If I could change

I'd be good for you

Oh, I hate all the madness and pain that I've put you through

It's not your fault (It's not your fault)

It's just how I am (It's just how I am)

You're a deer in the headlights and I'm driving as fast as I can (As fast as I can)

Oh, you're running down a darkened road

Where even angels might not go

And your star's got a lonely glow

And I pull you like a song you know

We might look like a dream come true

But it only leads you straight into

The thing that wrecks you (Wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you (Wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

You're a passing car

On a one way street

(The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you)

(The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you)

(The thing that wrecks you, that wrecks you)

(The thing that wrecks you, that wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Oh, the thing that wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Wrecks you)

The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (The thing that wrecks you)
