Lyrics

You,
if you could let me out
Out and up
from this motorcade
Here
I've been shaken up
Hold me out
I'm so loaded

I will marry you
To the memories
All of these thoughts become

I've seen this place before
It feels the same to you
No, we can't make this up
It's all gone on before
When they won't wait for you
You'll end up hoping for a miracle
A miracle,
A miracle

You,
you can stretch me out
And hold me up
Inside the motorcade
And here
You won't wake me up
Just hold me out
I'm so loaded

I will bury you
Beside the memories
Stuck inside everyone

If you could let me out
Would you let me out
If you could let me out
Of this motorcade
