A Reason to Worry - My Iron Lung

Turn the key

Start the engine

Let it warm up

Clear the window

Look away

Drive safe

It’s a long way back

On a night drive on your favorite road

In the winter

Your skin was cold

So I turned on the heat and there was fresh snow

It was beautiful

But made the car hard to handle

It was getting darker and darker and harder to see

But I was fine

At the time

Cause you

Were right next to me

I had no reason

No reason to worry

We had no reason

We were on our way home

I didn’t see it

Didn’t see it there

I couldn’t see it

Submerged in the snow

The car starts to drift off the road

First to the left

Then we regained control

Your left hand at my right hand were you frightened

Was it an act

Of misdirection

Did we fall out of love

I didn’t know what to do

But it was dark now and we were lost

But I guess

Neither of us really knew

I had a dream

Of a better place

For us

For you and I

I had a feeling

That I couldn’t trust

You with anything

Not even us

I had a feeling

That I couldn’t trust

You with anything

Not even us

Not even us

Not even us

The sky stuck to my head

It was a bad wreck

And you told me

I had fears of death

Which erodes

Bring out the worst of it

We hit eyes get bored of the extra day

I had a dream

Of a better place
