Open the windows in this car,
I wanna feel the world brush beside me.
I forget I'm alive and I've gone too far.
Nothing but an empty head, is that what you see?
He said he'd be home soon but I know,
know that cannot be.
He's not coming home to me.
What little did I mean?
Throw me a smile and I'll throw you my heart,
throw me an open hand, I'm damned if I take it.
If you pull away I'll be falling apart.
Everything you thought we fixed, you watch as we break it.
I know you say you do, but I know,
you don't love me too.
You believe to let it be the truth,
"that's just what people do, that's just what people do."
So open the windows in this car,
it's nice when you feel the world brush beside you.
Forget we're alive and you've gone too far.
It's nothing but an emptiness that grows inside you.
I say we'll be home soon but I know,
know that cannot be.
He's not coming home to me.
What little did I mean?
