Headlights

I guess I'm going in blind
It takes a bit of time to see, yeah
I'm turning on my headlights
So come and take a drive with me
I guess I'm going in blind
It takes a bit of time to see, yeah
I'm turning on my headlights

These darker nights are bitter
My soul it lusts for summer sun I'm fucking done with winter
This road is never-ending, or so it seems
The ever pending messages of death remain unread return to sender
The only thing that I can see in front of me is just the next 100 feet
I guess these headlights aren't as bright as I was hoping them to be
But fuck it let's just take a drive, deep into the night
And see what we can find, I hope it's something nice

How long will it take, the question remains
But I'm done looking for answers
This ain't a Sainsbury's, there ain't a sell-by date
It's just a dark unbeaten track with half a tank of petrol
Enough to weave and get us home
And to the place where the demon sent us
A place of lust and lies the kind that make your mother cry
Violent self-destruction part and parcel of this shallow life
I'm never turning back my friend, I'm driving deep into the darkness
Despite the slightly dimmer shining headlights of this little car
(Headlights)

I guess I'm going in blind
It takes a bit of time to see, yeah
I'm turning on my headlights
So come and take a drive with me
I guess I'm going in blind
It takes a bit of time to see, yeah
I'm turning on my headlights

Yo
They say life is a gamble
Despite the cards you were handed
You could turn tragic digging out graves
With the spade of an ace in a sandpit
Have I lost your queen of hearts
Just sip more Jack 'till the feeling's masked
Now live like a king but I see the scars
How long did you think that would really last, yeah
No blackjack, the only cards I'll be counting get handed
To me by the weed man, it seems to be standard
These days
Bought the coke it looking like it be coming gift wrapped
(What's it, what you on about)
Ain't got a poker face I just shut my eyes and look back

Cuz' I'm done with the talking, just want to cry
It's been so long and I don't know why
Can I work this out, I'm alone inside
Can I turn it round or resist the time
When I realize that my mistakes
Have changed my fate for better days
Seem far away in times of struggle
Nights of war and days of hate
(Headlights)
