Lyrics

Spread neck speed ball way to high way Needle is broken no telling on gas A highway dog plays a Russian roulette In and out of the sun under the overpass Why on Earth? They say only Heaven knows Why we turn every last word ever heard On each other over where everybody goes I know, I think therefore I am because I am or so I thought I was But when in Rome they say "Shoot Roman Candles" that way Nobody thinks you're crazy Passing it back and forth like a fifth of July I realize I can't tell you what to tell yourself But if we're still not what you thought you wanted Well, you can't deny it we were something else (Oooh... my love) Why on Earth? They say only Heaven knows Why we turn every last word ever heard On each other over where everybody goes I know, I think therefore I am because I am or so I thought I was But when in Rome they say "Shoot Roman Candles" that way Nobody thinks you're crazy (Guitar solo) We don't leave who we fell for We leave who we can't believe they have become (Oooh... my love) Leaving I don't mind as much getting left behind Why on Earth? They say only Heaven knows Why we turn every last word ever heard On each other over where everybody goes I know, I think therefore I am because I am or so I thought I was But when in Rome they say "Shoot Roman Candles" that way Nobody thinks you're crazy ...you're crazy Nobody thinks you're crazy
