Lyrics

Broken yolk in western sky
 My stomach turned, my mouth went dry
 And I knew I'd never known fear before
 I pressed my palms into the seat
 And with one last look at you next to me
 I kicked open the sliding door
 And I threw myself out on the road
 Torn flesh and broken bones
 And in the shoulder's patchy grass
 I faded into your past
 ♪
 I know it was a cowardly thing to do
 And that an explanation is not an excuse
 I just need you to understand
 My love is like some kind of greed
 Of equal portions want and need
 And I cannot divorce the two
 But I could not sleep at all
 With all the rumble strip close calls
 And in the gravel and scattered trash
 I faded into your past
 
 When you think twice
 You arrive at the same conclusions
 And it's bad advice
 Only if you use it
 ♪
 And then you disappeared from view
 And you became somebody new
 Near the exit's overpass
 I faded into your past
 Yes, I faded into your past
 Yes, I faded into your past
