Car Ride

You arrived covered in salt
 You were a wound that was weeping
 For someone who cut you all over
 Our lives covered in smoke
 By the night as you drank yourself sick
 And I hung from your shoulder
 You were a landslide covered in dirt
 You were a car ride into the Earth
 You were the last light ever to burn
 You were a harsh cry, hard to be heard
 Your eyelids cover the gold
 Behind the glass, how they crush you
 And kill you and crumble like buildings
 Perched in a hole in the wall
 Where lovers languish the words that were said
 As they fell on their swords
 Like a landslide covered in dirt
 Like a car ride into the Earth
 Like the last light ever to burn
 You were a harsh cry, hard to be heard
 You were a harsh cry, hard to be heard
 ♪
 I joined the people in black
 To celebrate you, we covered you slowly
 And cried as we did
 Like a landslide covered in dirt
 Like a car ride into the Earth
 Like the last light ever to burn
 You were a harsh cry, hard to be heard
 You were a harsh cry, hard to be heard
