Brake

On the drive back home
I kept my eyes tight shut
Speeding cars and moving light
The driveway swallowed us
The house was fast asleep
Speeding hearts and colored dreams
I’m no good at the give and take
You’re filled with questions
I can’t reciprocate
And quiet hearts are always bound to break
Apart
Now the tail light’s out
And the rain won’t stop
And we’ve been fighting with the clock
But time won’t wait for us
Our past is all used up
The gutter fills and sinks away
I’m no good
At the here and now
That was then and I let it go somehow
And restless hearts are always bound to break
Free
