Drive at night in the slow lane
Rabbit in headlights run away, run away
The great escape in the slow lane
Before it’s too late to run away, run away
The life we left behind
See, they all are alike
The life we left behind
Dreaming all our life
We ride on hopes
Designed our world
Let go of you and I
Run for our light
Don’t look behind
