[Verse 1]
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
Mmm
Tumbling and falling down the avalanche
Mmm
[Chorus]
So be quiet tonight, the stars shine bright
On this mountain of new fallen snow
But I will raise up my voice into the void
You have left me nowhere to go
[Verse 2]
And I love you so much and it's so bizarre
A mystery that goes on and on and on
This is the best thing and the very most hard
We don't get along
[Chorus]
And after countless appeals we keep spinning our wheels
On this mountain of new fallen snow
So I let go the catch and we are over the edge
You have left me nowhere to go
[Post-Chorus]
And I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
[Verse 3]
Sometimes you make me lose my will to live
And just become a beacon for your soul
But the past is stronger than my will to forgive
Forgive you or myself, I don't know
[Verse 1]
And I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
Ah, hmm
Tumbling and falling down the avalanche
Mmm hmm
[Chorus]
So be quiet tonight, be sure to step lightly
On this mountain of new fallen snow
But I will raise up my voice into the void
You have left me nowhere to go
[Post-Chorus]
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
[Outro]
Mmm
Ah yeah
