The Classic Crime - Headlights

Headlights by The Classic Crime

Off of their 2006 album, "Albatross"

A summer's drive away from dying
A broken heart, nothing to lose
I know it hurts so bad just trying
To please the ones you hate to love

And I wrote this note
About someone I used to know
So I remember how life can be so short
When you're left alone to wonder
How it is someone opens and shuts the door

And I know you're cold, come home
It's a shame how short we all have come

You set your mind on cruise control
Knuckles grip the wheel
And fear to let it go
Love is empty, love is cruel
Love, it blindly breaks the rules
How could you have been a fool
It's something all of us go through
You choke back tears and swallow lies
But those wiper blades won't fix your eyes
Count on having clouded vision
For at least a little while

And I know you're cold, come home
It's a shame how short we all have come
And I know you're cold, come home
Please don't face the headlights
Of oncoming cars alone

We won't forget the past
We won't forget the past

And I know you're cold
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I won't look back, I won't look back
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I will let you go, I will let you go

Say all the answers and I will let you go
I won't look back, I won't look back
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I will let you go, I will let you go
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I won't look back, I won't look back

Come home
Please don't face the headlights
Of oncoming cars alone
And I will let you go

This song is soooo beautiful :'3

[WowUsernameAvailable]

Can't help thinking of the way he sings the second verse starting from "Love is empty" as reminiscent of Brandon Urie's vocals.
