Drive Away from the Past

Yeah, yeah

Listen up, yeah

Three strikes, you’ve been reckless, I see

Driving blind, nobody’s watching me

Into the canal, did you forget?

Life’s on the line, can't regret

You got a new girl, fighting every night

Decided to drink, thought it was alright

Crash into a stranger, two weeks gone by

Don’t you remember, what’s the reason why?

Why do you keep on drinking and drive?

Lost in the dark, hope you survive

People’s lives are on the line, yeah

Can’t treat them like they don’t matter at all

Ooh, yeah, yeah

Tears in the rain, wishing you’d change, no

Ooh, yeah, yeah

People’s pain, deep down, don’t ignore

Old man’s story, hit by the night

Lost his leg, lost his sight

Pictures tell a thousand words

But you still don’t hear, you still don’t learn

Second girlfriend, fight in your mind

Third time’s a charm? Nah, you’re blind

Thought you’re untouchable, out of control

But every action takes a toll

Why do you keep on drinking and drive?

Lost in the dark, hope you survive

People’s lives are on the line, yeah

Can’t treat them like they don’t matter at all

Are you listening? Do you feel?

The pain you cause, it’s real

Think about the stories, tears, and fears

Change your ways, wipe away the years

Yeah, yeah

If you don't change, you'll never see

What’s really lost, what’s really free

People’s lives, they matter, yeah

Start today, make a move, don’t stray

Yeah, yeah, yeah
