Additional Lyrics
3. Out across the endless sea,
I would die in ecstacy.
But I’ll be a bag of bones
Driving down the road alone.

4. Something has to make you run.

I don’t know why I didn’t come
I feel as empty as a drum.
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
I don’t know why I didn’t come.
