Petrol - Ash

The cars come up the drive

Too many people inside

Under the stars they smile

They want to invade my home

I pace the darkened hall

Try to consider it all

In the dull lamps glow

And the truth is I don’t knowwww

The cars stop outside

They all stay inside

The house is drenched in light

But what have I done wrong?

I quietly climb the stairs

I remember all the years

I check everything is right

I need to hurry nowwww!

I’ve been preparing for days

I know exactly what to say

No one will be around

No one will take me down

They’ll all get in back in the cars

And maybe they’ll go home

But the things they’ll never know

Like where it is I goooo
