Long Way To Fall

Warmth of a cigarette
bathed in the dashboard's glow
wet tires on the pavement
mercy of the radio
far off in the distance
pale sparkle of the lights
from every direction
one for every lost voice in the night
It's a fine line between everything and nothing at all
it's a long way to fall
Running every red light
blind to every warning sign
one hand on the wheel
two wheels on the center line
failed every test
tasted every temptation
hummin' in the key of A
the engine's narcotic vibration
It's a fine line between everything and nothing at all
it's a long way to fall
They'll read it in the paper
fit the name to the face
if anyone can remember
they'll recall a vacant space
with the thousand mile stare
the void nothing could fill
I wish I could be there
when they get handed the bill
It's a fine line between everything and nothing at all
it's a Warmth of a cigarette
bathed in the dashboard's glow
wet tires on the pavement
mercy of the radio
far off in the distance
pale sparkle of the lights
from every direction
one for every lost voice in the night
It's a fine line between everything and nothing at all
it's a long way to fall
Running every red light
blind to every warning sign
one hand on the wheel
two wheels on the center line
failed every test
tasted every temptation
hummin' in the key of A
the engine's narcotic vibration
It's a fine line between everything and nothing at all
it's a long way to fall
They'll read it in the paper
fit the name to the face
if anyone can remember
they'll recall a vacant space
with the thousand mile stare
the void nothing could fill
I wish I could be there
when they get handed the bill
It's a fine line between everything and nothing at all
it's a long way to fall
