Line of Cars
from C'est La Vie by Foxfire
lyrics
I watched your curled up body roll away on a hospital gurney
And I heard you say that you love me but I just turned away
Puncture a hole inside my tinfoil heart
Open the wound
Empty out all the things that I have done
Oh God you see right through me
My anxious heart beating in your quivering arms
Against your chest
I made you this way didn't I
I climbed up my tower to watch the world burn to the ground
Like some kind of monster
A monster you don’t need to be around
I watched you go down
I’m on the Empire State Building
Throwing cars and planes into the street
Not caring where they land
Not caring who I’m hurting
Line of cars behind a pileup
All these people I've affected
And I heard you say that you love me but I just turned away
Puncture a hole inside my tinfoil heart
Open the wound
Empty out all the things that I have done
Oh God you see right through me
My anxious heart beating in your quivering arms
Against your chest
I made you this way didn't I
I climbed up my tower to watch the world burn to the ground
Like some kind of monster
A monster you don’t need to be around
I watched you go down
I’m on the Empire State Building
Throwing cars and planes into the street
Not caring where they land
Not caring who I’m hurting
Line of cars behind a pileup
All these people I've affected
