I'm driving to the edge of the world
Got to get away from that girl
Gonna hide away
For a year and a day
Till she's gone, till she's gone
I'm flying in a big lazy car
I want to go further than far
Do a hundred and ten
Won't be stopping then .. till I'm gone
Yes she grew on me slowly
Became something holy
And I laid down my life in those eyes
Dreaming perfection, perfecting deception
Deaf to a decade of lies
But it's not a game of noughts and crosses
There's a winner and a loser every time
Can't just pick up the pen, start again
Smile and draw new lines
There's a score, and it has to be settled
So I'm burning this wide empty road
I'm shouting, 'cos I get to unload
All that shit from the war
All those mind games and more
Yeah, they're gone, they're all gone
Tell no-one around here where I'm from
I'll just smile and look to get along
Gonna bury me deep, just write play and sleep
Till it's gone, till it's gone
Yes she grew on me slowly
Became something holy
And I laid down my life in those eyes
Dreaming perfection, perfecting deception
Deaf to a decade of lies
But it's not a game of noughts and crosses
There's a winner and a loser every time
Can't just pick up the pen, start again
Smile and draw new lines
There's a score, and it's just been settled (x3)
So I'm driving to the edge of the world
Got to get away from that girl
Gonna hide away
For a year and a day
Till she's gone, till she's gone
And I'm flying in a big lazy car
I want to go further than far
Do a hundred and ten
Won't be stopping then .. till I'm gone .. till I'm gone
