Reptilia

Lyrics

He seemed impressed by the way you came in
 "Tell us a story, I know you're not boring"
 I was afraid that you would not insist
 "You sound so sleepy, just take this, now leave me"
 I said: "Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast"
 You're in a strange part of our town
 ♪
 Yeah, the night's not over
 You're not trying hard enough
 Our lives are changing lanes
 You ran me off the road
 The wait is over
 I'm now taking over
 You're no longer laughing
 I'm not drowning fast enough
 ♪
 Now every time that I look at myself
 "I thought I told you, this world is not for you"
 The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair
 "You sound so angry, just calm down you found me"
 I said: "Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast"
 You're in a strange part of our town
 ♪
 Yeah, the night's not over
 You're not trying hard enough
 Our lives are changing lanes
 You ran me off the road
 The wait is over
 I'm now taking over
 You're no longer laughing
 I'm not drowning fast enough
