Swallowing You

She's leaving
 She's moving faster than a comet can fly away, oh
 And wondering, "Oh where in the hell am I going to land?"
 The motion, the streets are crackling with a fire tonight
 Slow motion, the neon screaming on an endless night
 And maybe you, you're in the middle
 And maybe you, you're in between
 And maybe you, you feel the pressure
 Swallowing you
 You fake it, you want it quickly so the sun may rise again, oh
 But it'll break you, a thousand pieces of a broken dream
 The roaring, the ferris wheel is breathing life tonight
 Forewarning, the carousel is spinning higher tonight
 And maybe you, you're in the middle
 And maybe you, you're in between
 And maybe you, you feel the moment, the victim is you
 I walked the streets with my eyes closed
 Kneeling down to stroke the pavement
 I don't know, is it real or is it just an illusion?
 And maybe you, you're in the middle
 And maybe you, you're in between
 And maybe you, you feel the pressure swallowing you
