"Motorway" lyrics

"Motorway"

Oh this motorway weaves itself under me
The city's harder to leave now that we've grown close
The sky that once was so endless sits closer than ever
Thought it'd swallow me up instead it's holding me close
I made a compromise for a quieter life, for a happier mind
Instead I'm just feeling old

How this motorway weaves itself under me
When all the gaps in the trees
Engrave themselves to me
Can you please drive me

Home, home, home, home

I'm just stuck in my body at somebody's party
I'm looking around for someone who I know
I know that you're sorry, just say that you're sorry
Admit that it hurt me then we can go home

Home, home, home, home

How this motorway weaves itself under me
It's getting harder to breathe now that we've grown close
I know that you're sorry, just say that you're sorry
It's starting to hurt me and we need to go home

Home, home, home, home

The city's gone to sleep, you won't talk to me
Everything I've ever known always with his back to me
Everything we wanted, everything we worked for
Scattered on the highway, throw it out the car door
Try to prove I'm honest, something good to offer
But your mum thinks I'm nothing, low life and a problem
Lock me into me into your life, shut me out of your heart
Trap me in the future I was never built for

Oh this motorway weaves itself under me
I'm getting ready to leave, I think I'm ready to go
The sky that once was so endless sits closer than ever
You're starting to draw in, I'm starting to close

How this motorway weaves itself under me
Know all the gaps in the trees
Engrave themselves to me
Can you please drive me
