Lyrics
Can Rova
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Start the car
Check the mirror
Shut the door
Slot the gear
We leave tonight
Ain't nothin' but the stripes
Ain't nothin' but the stripes
See the light
Be the night
Feel the road
River rise, synchronize
Bleed some more
We leave tonight
If I'm uncivilized, child
That's okay
You're gonna see me light a fire
On my days
But you don't see me
You don't see me
You don't see me
I can't see you
Anymore
If all in vain, I call your name
As tho the end was near
A slow decay
A sad refrain
And then I disappear
We leave tonight
Ain't nothin' but the stripes
As those city lights die
I'm on my way
You're gonna see me light a fire
On my days
But you don't need me
You don't need me
You don't need me
I don't need you
Anymore
