You tell me I can't slow down
you tell where I've gotta be
I speed into the darkness
but I swear that I can't see a thing in front of me
You know its true
I'm not driving anymore,
I can't keep up with you.

You're closing in behind me
Well I've got headlight in my eyes,
Don't you get too close to me
Can't you see that we'll collide,
and end up casualties
there's just no room
I'm not driving anymore,
I can't keep with you

So leave me on my own,
Run me down and race away from me
I've got nowhere to go to,
And I don't think I can get back on my feet,
back on my feet

You came right out of nowhere
Eyes wide and terrified,
and I can't put my brakes on,
And I can't swerve to save your life
cause then I'll lose control,
and I can't choose
I'm not driving anymore
I can't keep up with you

So leave me on my own
Run me down and race away from me
I've got no where to go to
I don't think I can get back on my feet,
back on my feet.

Get me out of harm's way,
Can't you see I'm paralyzed,
I wanna fade out gracefuly,
but you keep keeping me alive
to face another day,
can't you see I'm through
I'm not driving anymore,
I can't keep up with you.
Can't keep up with you

(Instrumental break)

Tell me how long have I got, God
I wanna end this earthly toil
Till this diet-light expires
I wanna go swimming in the soil
and not come up for breath
sit in God's room
I'm not driving anymore,
I can't keep up with you.

I'm unfit for consumption
I don't know how to play
