Maybe You Should Drive (Live)

It Sounded less like Don Mclean
and more like Lenny Bruce.
I've been wrapping my head around your idea of the truth.

Always the truth brought out in fear.
Or the truth put on display,
or the truth that comes when people leaving people,
go away,
go away.

Maybe you should drive.
Shut your eyes closed, shut your eyes and read between the lines.

Maybe you should drive.
Shut your eyes closed, shut your eyes and read between the lines.

Everyone who stood by you
Are the same ones who just left.
Your cavalry's gone, gone.
Don't hold your breath, dear.

Bets laid so low I thought you'd never clue in.
Be careful who you keep these days, as friends these days,
friends these days.

Maybe you should drive.
Shut your eyes closed, shut your eyes and read between the lines.

Maybe you should drive.
Shut your eyes closed, shut your eyes and read between the lines.

And don't beat yourself up, don't beat yourself, black and blue.
There was nothing to say
This was coming, no rehearsal we could've sat through.
I love you so much it breaks my heart,
I love you beyond words.
But you got cold when you started buying the news.
You got cold, you got scared.

Maybe you should drive.
Shut your eyes closed,
Shut your eyes closed,
Shut your eyes closed

Maybe you should drive.
Shut your eyes closed, shut your eyes and read between the lines.

Shut your eyes closed, shut your eyes and read between the lines.
