DRIVE LIKE CARSON LYRICS

"The Sensible Thing"

I'd say it's still early on in the game,

And I'm already running away, ashamed to be afraid.

Wait, what about the things I had to say?

You can't just take it all away from me.



It's my life, so I decide.

There's no sign of compromise.

I swear I could've spun the world around while closing both my eyes

Close my eyes



But you failed to do the sensible thing

You just gave me away

Now no one's safe so please refrain from mentioning names

I can barely sustain

It was my mistake to emphasize material things

You can't take me away

I'm losing faith, I know it sounds completely insane,

But I'm inclined to obey

Just let me free, please, I'll do anything



The phone rings, I'm lying awake waiting for company

But the toll i pay is greater than I can take

The first and last time I let them put me in my place



I turned and ran from the flashing lights and thought I knew for sure

But all these hazy mirrors won't let me see what I want to see

Have I reached my goals?

Have I sold my soul?

It pays to be listening when you realize you can't speak anymore



Just let me free please I'll do any sensible thing.
