I saw a wreck at a light

Two cars that gave up the fight

Nobody left to be saved

No steam left under the gauge

And in that carnival light

The show began to unwind

And I saw just how it goes

Out on that old two-lane road

I been saving time for another life

Maybe happiness is coming but you don't know when

When...

The Gravity

Of whether you were meant for me

Came crashing down with sovereignty

In someone else's tragedy

I saw the old man again

He only talks about when

There was so much to believe

Before the cancer to be

He can't remember the song

The words they all come out wrong

And all his records are cracked

He knows you can't get it back

It's only faded time

Maybe happiness is coming but you don't know when

When...

The Gravity

Of whether you were meant for me

Came crashing like a symphony

In someone else's used to be

And we carried our cross like a clover

And we smoked cigarettes and we lied

About the things we would feel when we're older

Oh God what a fine waste of time

And I miss you are you coming over
