Grand Theft Heartache
Escape from Love's Grip: Electric Fuchsia's Grand Theft Heartache
Lyrics
I rifled through your pockets for the keys
I searched through your belongings for the car keys.
Put the car in drive and I left you saying "please"
I started the car and left, despite your pleas.
In the mirror I see you with a thousand-mile stare
In the rearview mirror, I see you with a distant, vacant look.
I try to wipe my hand clean on the passenger side chair
I attempted to clean my hands on the passenger seat.
Empty streets ahead
I see open roads ahead.
Wishing I was dead
I express a desire for escape or relief.
Doped up and alone
Under the influence and feeling isolated.
Am I in the twilight zone or is this real?
Questioning reality, feeling disoriented.
Reached into my jacket for a smoke
I reached into my jacket for a cigarette.
Couldn't find the lighter so I tossed it to the road
Unable to find a lighter, I discarded it on the road.
In unlit alleys now I walk through shattered dreams
Navigating dark alleys filled with shattered dreams.
Broken streetlights cover me with darkness that's unseen
Darkness from broken streetlights envelops me.
Narrow cobbles stones
Walking on narrow cobblestones, feeling completely alone.
I'm completely on my own
Isolated and abandoned.
Sirens in the air
Sirens are audible in the atmosphere.
Into flashing beams I glare
I stare into flashing police lights.
At the Lights
Reflecting on the lights.
I flashback to that evening when we fought
I recall an evening when we had a heated argument.
You found what I'd been hiding, all the money that I'd lost
You discovered the money I had lost and discarded your ring.
You threw your ring away and you said i couldn't stay
You rejected me, and now I stand on a bridge above the bay.
And now up here I waver on the bridge above the bay
Shaking and fearful, contemplating past choices.
Shaking and afraid, of the choices I have made
Afraid of the decisions I've made.
Far above the waves, into darkness I may fade
Hovering above the waves, contemplating a dark fate.
From this life
Considering leaving this life.
I rifled through my pockets for the keys
I once again search for the car keys.
Put the car in drive and I fell into the breeze
I put the car in drive and surrender to the breeze.
