Driving North 歌词

I've got skin like birch bark You can peel me off and lose me to the wind I guess it's too late to protect myself from this It feels like I've been driving north It's getting colder by the mile And at this rate I'll be buried in snow in no time at all But you've been building these walls for a long time It's not that I didn't know but you'd flash me another smile As you'd lay another stone And I still fall for that I still fall for that one every time This is all that's left Just these sad sad songs If you're going to go your way I guess I'll carry myself along Could you build me a guardrail To keep me from falling off of the ledge? Or throw me a rope and pull me out of this? Could you sew me a flag to remind me Where I stand without you it's easy to forget And this is all that's left Just these sad sad songs If you're going to go your way I guess I'll carry myself along Well I've been taking long drives with the music too loud I've been dragging my feet over this February ground And I've been talking to strangers at the local bars And I wish they were you You know it just brings me down Tell me a joke or two I could use one now Because I've got skin like birch bark You can peel me off and lose me to the wind I guess it's too late to protect myself from this And this is all that's left Just these sad sad songs If you're going to go your way I guess I'll carry myself along
