lyrics

In the quiet times, in the middle of the day
Everything unravels and turns a little grey
Minutes turn to hours, hours into days
Lost between, and I can't find my way
I can't find my way

I should worry about something else, in someone else's name
I should worry about something else, in someone else's name

The nights are getting louder, with voices chasing me
Check my reflection in the rear-view, I don't know who I see
Empty highway with the music up and the windows down
I'm looking for a new road, but running out of town

I should worry about something else in someone else's name
I should worry about something else in someone else's name
Everything and nothing, everything and nothing
Everything and nothing

It's about time to get it right
Getting all my ducks in line
Don't forget the heart and mind
Or anyone along for the ride

I should worry about something else, in someone else's name
I should worry about something else, in someone else's name
Everything and nothing, everything and nothing
Everything and nothing will be OK
