lyrics

I was sleeping the backseat
Of an old and a beat up car.
My older sister, she was driving it onwards,
Driving it through our yard.
In half an hour it will be dawn,
And then our parents, they'll wake up
And realize that their car is gone.

They will look inside our bedrooms
And realize that we are not there.
Then they'll look for the note that they hope that we wrote
And that's when they will
Get scared.

Who will be the one to suck the light from me?
Who will be the one to suck the light from me?
A black hole or a sun dying from something that is frightening.
Who will be the one to suck the light from me?
Who will be the one to suck the mass from me?
Who will be the one to suck my energy?

I was sleeping in the backseat
And my mother, she was in the trunk.
My father's passed out from exhaustion.
In the bedroom he is passed out drunk.
My older sister, she is at the wheel
And the sun, it is coming up.
But we forgot the baby in the cradle
So now we are...
We are fucked.
