[Verse]
The wheels still spin
Though the wreck’s long done
Smoke in the air
A new day's sun
Eyes locked tight on a stranger’s fall
The sirens fade
But we’ve seen it all
[Chorus]
Oh
We can't look away
No
We can't look away
A twisted scene
A theater play
The mirror’s cracked
It won’t show our face
Oh
We can't look away
No
We can’t look away
[Verse 2]
Silver glass shards on the yellow lines
Tales of their pain
We make them mine
We’re moths to flames
Hypnotized by glow
A chaos bloom where the wild winds blow
[Prechorus]
Who are we
To stare so long?
A fleeting life
A fragile song
[Chorus]
Oh
We can't look away
No
We can't look away
A twisted scene
A theater play
The mirror’s cracked
It won’t show our face
Oh
We can't look away
No
We can’t look away
[Bridge]
The radio hums
The newsman cries
While we sip our tea
We dissect their lives
Rubbernecked hearts
We bend and break
Living through others
Their sorrow we take
