Hit and Run Lyrics

Lights out in the crosswalk

You blindside me

Lying facedown in the street

With my broken teeth

I'm bleeding out, I see you've gone

This is a hit and run

Someone will call for help

Someone will save the day

But nobody's movin

No one has a word to say

I read your eyes, they said, You're Mine

The pace was steady, all seemed fine

I just needed time

Hindsight makes this ache

Like a pounding heart full of terror

And I won't stand for watching you fade away

In my rearview mirror

Broken down and gasping

No recourse will come

Inaction is what brought me here

to this hit and run

Nobody's made that call

Concern grows in their eyes

Still, nobody's movin

No one thinks that I'll survive

I read your eyes, they said, Entwined

But those were lies

This impact is hard to describe

Hindsight makes this sting

like the burning blink of a fever

And I am helplessly watching you fade away

In my rearview mirror

I never knew you suffered silently

You pined for me, now it shows

Eroding from the inside, it swallows me whole

To think, I've died to you, don't let go

Not knowing what you needed, I buried my soul

So much for happy endings

This dies out in the cold

Hindsight makes this burn

like the dressing ripped from a flesh wound

And now I see you shrinking away, away, yeah

Hindsight sheds bright light on my choices

That pushed you so far away

And now you have disappeared

In my rearview mirror

My rearview mirror

My rearview mirror

My rearview mirror

My rearview mirror

My rearview mirror
