Feel it, the calm after the storm
As still as I can be
I'm finally all alone

Until I fall asleep

Did I escape or am I captured?

Trapped in a cage of rear view mirror eyes
Triangles that look like faces


This is what I get
For my revenge
A hidden microphone

An amber alert implanted
Under my skin
It's just in my head but

It takes me over
It makes me forget why I'm on my way
These four years feel like a hundred


West-bound
Driving all alone to make sure that you know

I've been running scared without you
I drove all night to tell you
In dreams I've seen your face with

Another in my place
I know it was another life but I never could forget you
I never could forget you


We set it up (we set it up)
Like a house of cards in a hurricane

We didn't think it would ever make sense
He set us up (he set us up)
He knew just where to plant it

It knocked me over
It made me forget how I fell in love
How much I really cared


West-bound
Driving all alone to make sure that you know

I've been running scared without you
I drove all night to tell you
In dreams I've seen your face with

Another in my place
I know it was another life but I never could forget you
I never could forget you


You'll see me there like a familiar stranger standing on the streets
I'll say a prayer, I'll introduce myself like it's the first time we'd ever meet

In California, I'd learn that sometimes you have to run away
In California, I'd find myself again


West-bound
Driving all alone to make sure that you know
I've been running scared without you

I drove all night to tell you
In dreams I've seen your face with
Another in my place

I know it was another life but I never could forget you
