Built my life out of diamonds and dirt
And said, "Would you, would you
Tend to this hurt?"
One day, water floods the land
And everything slips out of my hands
Believe, it's time to believe
So I left
It was a hot ride home, desperately slow
Doubled over, doubled back up the road
Go, go, I wanna know what's up ahead
Shiver the whole way, we were already late
Going too fast, backwards and last place
Slow down, I don't wanna know what's up ahead
I hope it's you, hands cuffed
Yelling "Stand up!"
Cause I'm waist-high and knee-deep
Your lost dog, I'll be listening
For your call back, it's a set trap
I left my deep tracks in your white snow
Follow my lead, charging at the road
Saved my time safely underground
The bombs falling, couldn't hear them pound
It's a fine place, you'd never know
The people coming cold, the flag blows
And believe, it's time to believe
So I left
It was a hot ride home, desperately slow
Doubled over, doubled back up the road
Go, go, I wanna know what's up ahead
Shiver the whole way, we were already late
Going too fast, backwards and last place
Slow down, I don't wanna know what's up ahead
I hope it's you, hands up
Hitch-hiking, you're caught
But it's midnight, you're frightening
It's my fault, so I'll try again
Call you 'til you come back and my voice is gone
Whisper your sound out to the sun's dawn
Race me there, I'll beat you back to home
It was a hot ride home, desperately slow
It was a hot ride home, desperately slow
Shiver the whole way, we were already late
It was a hot ride home, desperately slow
Race me there, I'll beat you back to home
Race me there, I'll beat you back to home
