Lyrics

Slam the door, turn off the lights
Shut your mouth and close your eyes
And when the words start piling up
Just let 'em lie
Just keep 'em locked right up inside

Forget the picture, lose the frame
Forget my face; forget my name
And when the memories start to vanish
Let 'em fade
Yeah, just let 'em waste

CHORUS
I want to drive until I'm lost
Play with snow until I'm frostbitten and bleed
I'll paint my red across this scene
I've swum until I'm tempest-tossed
I've paid just to forget the cost
I'm on my knees
I think I need someone to be

Take your chair and take your frown
Find the last porch in this town
And when the people stumble over
Let 'em down
Just make them stop coming around

CHORUS
I want to drive until I'm lost
Play with snow until I'm frostbitten and bleed
I'll paint my red across this scene
I've swum until I'm tempest-tossed
I've paid just to forget the cost
I'm on my knees
I think I need someone to be

Sammy Blaze:
Let's redefine this life, the paradigm, epiphany
Drink to the good times, burn away the memories
Look to the stars, and get lost in the mystery
Of who we are in the whole of human history
The time of our song, together sing in symphony
Embrace the sound of silence to drown out all our miseries
And through the tears, You speak, You still believe in dreams
So when you run, run free; you got someone to be

I've lost the feeling in my toes
Forgotten words I used to know
And now I'm rife with sleepless nights
The bathroom mirror's just a well
Of smiles that I used to sell
And that ground seems closer now
Sometimes, I wish you'd let me down

CHORUS
I want to drive until I'm lost
Play with snow until I'm frostbitten and bleed
I'll paint my red across this scene
I've swum until I'm tempest-tossed
I've paid just to forget the cost
I'm on my knees
I think I need someone to be
