Light starts in a dark place
The story of a car chase
And Ive become the criminal
And fleeing from the scene being caught in a bad dream
The truth becomes the unthinkable, yeah
Im on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To break heart would be better
Tonight Ill do what it takes to fail
Im going there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter
Im out of control asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Out of control asleep at the wheel
Night falls with no grace
I said I can do anything
But I can do anything wrong
And with burning speed the rearview says its catching up to me
But Im already gone
Im on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To break heart would be better
Tonight Ill do what it takes to fail
Im going there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter
Im out of control asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Tearing it down to open up the highway
Were looking for an exit
No pretending
Speeding out and around with a silvering smash
Staring at a car crash oh
The chase is ending
Im on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To break heart would be better
Tonight Ill do what it takes to fail
Im going there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter
The end is coming
Im on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To break heart would be better
Im out of control asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Out of control asleep at the wheel
