lyrics

I thought the passenger seat was the place for me
To escape that fiasco at the university.
I have to run away from everything.

You knocked me down like a pin,
I thought I'd never get back up again,
But it's time to make amends.

I was always advised that silence was the answer.
To speak from the other side, despite having all the right words.

I thought the open road was the place to go
When you're not sure where to call your home.
But it's not true, and I can't forget the pictures that you drew.

You knocked me down like a pin,
I thought I'd never get back up again,
But it's time to make amends.

I was always advised that silence was the answer.
To speak from the other side, despite having all the right words.
Don't expect comfort from me this time,
You will not believe what you've heard.
But I'm not done this time, oh no, cause silence is not the answer.

I hope the candles on your birthday cake
Take the mask you're wearing now,
And burn it permanently to your face.
In regards to the mess I made,
I might not be perfect, but I'm good enough to change some things.
