lyrics

I can't see through the windshield, the fog is thick as hell
We're both breathing too fast, slow it down or we might crash
It's too damn hot in this car and it's cold outside
All the snow and ice, this is suicide

This old room that you grew up in
Is a museum that no one comes in
You know mom and dad ain't changing nothing

I can't see through the windshield, it's busted all to hell
My heart's beating too fast, the whole road's covered in glass
We're both upside down and your eyes are closed
Bleeding out your nose while the ice cold wind blows

This old room that you grew up in
Is a museum that no one comes in
You know mom and dad ain't changing nothing

At your house giving hugs
It's all I've got but it's not enough
The coffee mugs at your kitchen table are never empty when I'm here
They will never be the same
It's hard to smile through the pain
Every time they say your name

This old room that you grew up in
Is a museum that no one comes in
You know mom and dad ain't changing nothing
