If you look away even for a second

It's bound to break your back and leave you with the wreckage

Just a rolling pouring poison down that throat

With no concern about reaching for any goals



Maybe if I make it home tonight

Not to get torn apart or knifed in a fistfight

At night awake alive I'm barely functioning

And there is no regard for tomorrow's sting

(I don't think I can contain myself)



Look away - the memories they stay

Look away - 'til the whole thing fades



Poking holes in whatever comes near ya

Just because you need to nobody dared you

You had it all in the back of your Ford

Went through the windshield left the pills on the floor



Look away - the memories they stay

Look away - never learn anything



If you look away even for a second

I'm bound to kick your ass and leave you with the wreckage

You got one eye open the other's always hid

Any sign of trouble well you're sure to shrink from it
