A lapse in my memory
Asleep at the wheel
Shattered glass on the pavement
The streetlights reveal
No gentle wisdom
From their tortured tongues
Holding out silence
Till the daylight comes

Blue and red come wheel away
All these thoughts that never change

Was the best of me the least of you
Tell me what do I deserve
When all I need to follow through
Is a lesson yet to learn

Were we caught in the static
Thought I rested my case
Just the rain and the radio
Conclusions in vain
And I’m just a hypocrite but
Could you never be wrong
Just how far from a stone’s throw
You’d string me along

All my fault all the same anyway
Blame these rules that never change

Was the best of me the least of you
Tell me what do I deserve
When all I need to follow through
Is a lesson yet to learn
