Whatever Gets You Through
Embracing Chaos: Whatever Gets You Through by Christina Alessi & the Toll Collectors
Lyrics
Well I'm driving on this rainy highway
Driving on a rainy highway
Aiming for the western sky
Heading towards a distant goal
Raindrops and watercolors decorate the night
Imagery of raindrops and colors in the night
I'm gonna leave this all behind
Intention to leave everything behind
Well there's something sweet about falling apart
Finding solace in breakdowns after being stressed
When you've been wound up so tight
Feeling relief when unraveling from tension
Yeah sweet like whiskey, bitter like wine
Comparing the experience to sweet whiskey and bitter wine
Whatever gets you through the night
Using whatever helps to endure the night
Well I'm finally gonna do this my way
Choosing a personal path before time passes
Before another year goes by
Acting before another year elapses
Brake lights are warning signs that punctuate my time
Brake lights symbolize warnings in life
I'm gonna leave this all behind
Deciding to leave it all behind
Well there's something sweet about falling apart
Finding comfort in breakdowns amidst stress
When you've been wound up so tight
Relief when tension unravels
Yeah sweet like whiskey, bitter like wine
Comparing the experience to sweet whiskey and bitter wine
Whatever gets you through the night
Using whatever methods to endure the night
I'm moving on
Moving forward
I'm getting out
Leaving the current situation
I'm letting go
Releasing oneself from attachment
Got to get away
Needing to escape
Well there's something sweet about falling apart
Finding solace in breakdowns amidst stress
When you've been wound up so tight
Relief when tension unravels
Yeah sweet like whiskey, bitter like wine
Comparing the experience to sweet whiskey and bitter wine
Whatever gets you through the night
Using whatever methods to endure the night
Well there's something sweet about falling apart
Finding comfort in breakdowns amidst stress
When you've been wound up so tight
Relief when tension unravels
Yeah sweet like whiskey, bitter like wine
Comparing the experience to sweet whiskey and bitter wine
Whatever gets you through the night
Using whatever methods to endure the night
