Little Doomsday

No other cars on the interstate
It was getting late

I put my mind on the recent snow
My head on the window

The miles between towns stretch like
Rippling hills of nowhere
Now I wanna go there

That news divided our family lore
Into an after and a before

A ship that never made it back to shore
A freezing boy pounding on the back door

Stone silent right there beside you
No clue who I was or what I'd turned into

Little Doomsday out on the freeway
Didn't speak a word cause we had nothing to say
It's just another night that we've gotta drive through

It threads the sky and the inlet
York Point's silhouette

Three of us left on the river now
Leaning off the boat bow

The gathering dark comes on
Fast like a portal to elsewhere
Now I gotta get there

The river gives and it takes away
There's really not much more to say

Spent months deciding if I should stay
Slack-jawed, standing in the doorway

Stone silent right there beside you
No clue who I was or what I'd turned into

Little Doomsday out on the freeway
Didn't speak a word cause we had nothing to say
It's just another night that we've gotta drive through

Riding in the car beside you
Believing it was just a scare

Sleeping at the wheel beside you
Waking from another nightmare

About you
Stone silent right there beside you
(About you)
No clue who I was or what I'd turned into

Little Doomsday out on the freeway
Didn't speak a word cause we had nothing to say
It's just another night that we've gotta drive through
