Counting Crows - This Desert Life

Speedway

Two, three, four.

I get so nervous, I'm shaking,
Gets so I got no pride at all,
Gets so bad, but I just keep coming back for more,
I guess I just get off on that stuff.

I'm thinking about taking some time,
I'm thinking about leaving soon.

I got some things I can't tell anyone,
I got some things I just can't say,
Well they're the kind of things no one knows about,
I just need somebody to talk, to me.

I'm thinking about leaving tomorrow,
I'm thinking about leaving on my own,
I think I been wasting my time,
I'm thinking about getting out,
Thinking about getting out.

In all this time,
The bottom line's you don't know,
How much I feel,
You say you see but I don't agree,
You don't know,
Don't know how I feel.

I'm just trying to get myself some gravity,
You're just trying to get me to stay,
Sometimes I sit here looking down upon Los Angeles,
Sometimes I'm floating away.

I'm thinking about breaking myself,
I'm thinking about getting back home,
I think I been waiting for way too long,
I'm thinking about getting out,
Thinking about getting out,
Thinking about getting out.
