The world feels a little bit tighter when there's words stuck in my throat

Head filling up with fire, lost a sentence in the smoke

I remember when the penny dropped

Funny how you can't pick it back up

Waiting on, waiting on

The drive

It was a way to pass the time

It was a way to pass the time

Big US of A diner

Foamed up rain to match the mood

Leaving the past behind you in a violent burst of blue

I remember drowning in the shame

Dousing every letter in my name

Waiting on, waiting on

The drive

It was a way to pass the time

It was a way to pass the time

I shouldn't feel bad

I gave it everything I had

I gave it everything I had

Really no one knows I'm losing skin to hold a screw

My brother says I owe this to the part of me he knew

The part of me that's through

Waiting on, waiting on

The drive

It was a way to pass the time

It was a way to pass the time

I shouldn't feel bad

I gave it everything I had

I gave it everything I had

...

There's a fever taking over me

I will be the one to quarantine

There's a fever clawing at my feet

I won't pass it on like it was passed to me
