"Pedal Down" lyrics
"Pedal Down"
Has it kicked in yet?
The guy who sold it said you'll start to sweat
Your stomach churns like you've gotta confess
Grab the last of it the sun just set
Keep the windshield clear
All the shaking makes it hard to steer
Getting jumpy like an auctioneer
Am I the headlights or am I the deer?
We told our half truths to the neighbors
Tried not to look them in the eye
We headed out when the sun went down
Driving north on 95
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
Keep the pedal down
Has it sunk in yet?
When you see it you can't forget
There's a window while the concrete's wet
It's kinda looking like the footprint's set
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
They said you'd make such good parents
It sounds like old fashioned fun
Fall in love by the iPhone light
One each a daughter and a son
But we lead our lambs to slaughter
It's profit, boot straps, and guns
Every god needs a sacrifice
Honey what have we done?
What the fuck have we done?
Is anyone out there?
Is this thing on?
The temple is sacked and the healers are gone
You'll turn into a pillar of salt if you dare turn around
Is anyone out there?
Is this thing on?
The temple is sacked and the healers are gone
You'll turn into a pillar of salt if you dare turn around
Don't you dare turn around
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
We can grieve it later
Keep the pedal down
Keep the pedal down
Keep the pedal down
Keep the pedal down
Keep the pedal down

Banner Pilot - "Intervention" I know that I just fucked up everything
And I know that nights like these might leave a scar
I gave up every goddamn thing for you
And now I'm stuck here in the backseat of my car
But you know...
Face To Face - "Disconnected" You don't know a thing about me
Is there something that you should know?
I can tell you what you wanna hear
Let your inhibitions just go
No, you don't know what you will give up
No, you don't know...
The Lawrence Arms - "100 Resolutions" Where have I been all your life?
Sitting on fences, a novocaine for all the senses.
Another year will pass us by.
Making sense of nothing, in defense of something.
I laughed too late and dug myself...
The Horrible Crowes - "I Witnessed A Crime" I guess the moon it had it out for us
And the night and the stars the same
Everything she touched turned to stone or died eventually
Or was never seen the same again
Yeah, and this heart I had
You...
