the day that we took out a car in the rain is the day you forgot how to brake and see how quickly the picture will change filled with fingers and voices and teeth i still remember holding my hand against your face just before it was sprayed across the radio as it played and you and me are still but the scenery moves well why would it stop just 'cause suddenly there's one where there used to be two and everything's quiet but yo looks like the speaker lived through the blow still playing some compilation you made feels like a lifetime sitting alone so i start humming along to the tape i always liked this singer i remember how you were the one who told me that her name was either mia or m.i.a. and i am thinking how many hours till i'm home how long do i stay in this place who's going to wash all the blood from my clothes who's gonna cancel my date who's gonna cancel my date and i think i always liked this singer i remember how you were the one who told me that her name was either mia m.i.a. took out a car in the wet i thought to myself that the sky was blue as i've ever seen it but yet still tinted with red
