Lyrics

Just when everything was runnin' clean

Everything was going smoothly, but then...

I heard a big bang from the back of my brain

I experienced a sudden, impactful disturbance in my mind.

Like a rusty gear I'm grindin' at my teeth

Feeling tense and anxious, like something isn't working right.

Hopin' I don't break down 'til I'm outta the rain

Hoping I don't fall apart until I'm in a better situation.

Soakin' wet I can't forget what happened here

Despite being in a challenging situation, I can't forget what happened.

I get goin' pretty fast and

I start moving quickly.


That's when I crash into my past

I collide with my past.

Just when I thought it might be gone at last

Just when I believed it might be over and done with.

That's when I crash into my past

I crash into memories of my past again.

Just when I think I'm havin' my last laugh, that's when I crash

Right when I think I've overcome it, I confront it once more.


Swimmin' in and out of interstate

I move between different paths, unsure of which to take.

Watchin' the breaklights bleed like the look in my eye

Observing others' signals and emotions, similar to my own feelings.

Speedin' up to lose the love I left behind

Trying to accelerate away from a love I left behind.

But every headlight stares like it sees through my lie

Feeling like others can see through my attempts to hide.

With the windows down I never hear the sound

I'm oblivious to external noises with my windows down.

Breakin' on me with a blast and

An abrupt impact or realization hits me.


That's when I crash into my past

I collide with my past yet again.

Just when I thought it might be gone at last

Despite hoping it was behind me.

That's when I crash into my past

My past resurfaces, interrupting my sense of moving on.

Just when I think I'm havin' my last laugh, that's when I crash

Just when I believe I've conquered it, it reappears.


Lala lalala la la


Soakin' wet I can't forget what happened here

Reiteration of the lingering impact of a past event.

I get goin' pretty fast

I speed up again.

Before I notice

Before I realize...


That's when I crash into my past

I collide with my past.

Just when I thought it might be gone at last

Just when I believed it might be behind me.

That's when I crash into my past

I face my past again.

Just when I think I'm havin' my last laugh, that's when I crash

Despite feeling triumphant, my past catches up.
