Who's in charge of this wayward bus

Has everyone fallen asleep at once

The driver's not speaking and I'm not believing that he's

Even in front

Without any sound in a record-breaking rush

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

We're too stoned to notice there's no road left to be tucked

Down under the wheels that have long since abandoned us

Like riderless horses they're all returning back

To wherever they're from

It's impossible now that we'll be anything but crushed

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

The fuel line is leaking and the fumes are now too much

The rescue is leaving having not been brave enough

The guide book we're sharing has ended with saying

You'll do whatever you must

No sign of the ground or a deal left to be struck

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

I'll let you down but I will not give you up

I will not

I will not give you up
