[Verse 1]
As the car begins to roll
I smile as I lose control
This weightlessness is such a gift
'Cause gravity has lost it's hold

My spinal cord still sending shocks
But my life's in need of repair
There's got to be more than this
I don't want to just exist
As a hollow house for bones
More alone every minute
Is there a place where I can start again?
[Chorus]
I’ve said goodbye so many times in my life
I'm surprised it's still so hard for me
To see that I should start living my life
Or I will die unfulfilled and empty
[Outro]
Wake up, you're sleeping
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
Wake up, you're sleeping
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
Wake up, you're sleeping
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
