Shame on you
For dragging me down this empty road.
Shame on me
For getting on the ground.

You used to drive me,
And now I'm on empty.
Now all you do is drive me away,
But I've got nothing left to get me there.

This power, it runs me.
But the miles are wearing me down.
Looking for a way out,
But only finding myself looking for the hand that pulls me.

You have this energy,
Peaceful yet spiteful.
You use it against me,
You know when to use them.
Knowing which way I'm trying to turn.

So now I've lost my drive.
I let go of the wheel.
Heading off course,
Heading towards a crash I can see coming.
But I never stopped pushing the gas.

The shame, it's all mine.
Down to the ground again.
Down to the ground.
