Miles To Midnight

Miles to midnight as I drive you home
With Miles Davis on the radio
I watched the smoke slip from your lips And traced the seat where it held you in
I'm taking deeper breaths to shake this restlessness
The streetlights do their best
I can be strong for so long
But I'm drifting, I'm drifting away

Wake me up, I can't control myself
I am trying hard to shake this disease
But it's taking a hold of me and
Can you hold me still
Can you stop stop stop me
There is something coming over me
I'm only violent in my dreams

She fell asleep against the window
Her famous legs tucked underneath her
And I swear that she stopped breathing
Just enough so I can see
With every breath there's dying
To some varying degree
And I'll take in everything every second dear
I'll hold it all inside try not to close my eyes

Curse the cold air c'mon c'mon
Curse the night as it turns to dawn c'mon c'mon
