lyrics
(hands on the dash) Pulled over on the road behind the reservoir at midnight Engine off, radio on, and the windows going white And you asked if I was sure and I laughed in your fucking face I've been sure since March, you're the one who's been deciding Take the good hand off the wheel There is nowhere left to drive to The road ends here, it's been ending here for months Hands on the dash, hands on the dash Stop asking me questions you already know the answer to Hands on the dash, hands on the dash The car's not going anywhere and neither the fuck are we You've got a nice car and a nice life and a nice girl And I'm the road behind the reservoir. I know what I am. Hands on the dash, hands on the dash Stop asking me questions you already know the answer to Hands on the dash, hands on the dash The car's not going anywhere and neither the fuck are we (neither are we)
