THE ARCADE FIRE - Keep The Car Running lyrics

Every night my dream's the same

Same old city with a different name

Men are coming to take me away

I don't know why, but I know I can't stay

There's a weight that's pressing down

Late at night you can hear the sound

Even the noise you make when you sleep

Can't swim across a river so deep

They know my name cause I told it to them

But they don't know where and they don't know

When it's coming, when it's coming

There's a fear I keep so deep

Knew its name since before I could speak

Aaaaah Aaaaah Aaaaah Aaaaah

They know my name cause I told it to them

But they don't know where and they don't know

When its coming, oh when but its coming

Keep the car running

If some night I don't come home

Please don't think I've left you alone

The same place animals go when they die

You can't climb across a mountain so high

The same city where I go when I sleep

You can't swim across a river so deep

They know my name cause I told it to them

But they don't know where

And they don't know

When it's coming, oh when is it coming?

Keep the car running

Keep the car running

Keep the car running
