  • I came along for the ride
    Went wicked with the clutch
    Happened so fast and it hurt so much
    You're a car crash
    And I can't look away
    I should have known by now
    I'm still not afraid
    I do it to myself
    Knows what I never say
    You're a car crash
    And I can't look away

    All I see is shattered glass and
    Red lights passing
    My life flashing!
    Headed for the same disaster
    Faster and faster and faster

    I couldn't stop at the red light
    Stop at the red light
    I couldn't stop at the red light
    You're a car crash
    And I can't look away

    I came along for the ride
    Went wicked with the clutch
    Happened so fast and it hurt so much
    You're a car crash
    And I can't look away

    And all I see is shattered glass and
    Red lights passing
    My life flashing!
    Headed for the same disaster
    Faster and faster and faster

    I couldn't stop at the red light
    The red light
    Stop at the red light
    I couldn't stop at the red light
    You're just like a car crash
    And I can't look away
    From the headlights
    The red light
    Stop at the red light
    I couldn't stop at the red light
    You're just like a car crash
    And I can't look away! (Let's go for a ride!)

    And all I see is shattered glass and
    Red lights passing
    (Let's go for a ride!)
    Headed for the same disaster
    Faster and faster and faster

    I couldn't stop at the red light
    The red light
    Stop at the red light
    I couldn't stop at the red light
    You're just like a car crash
    And I can't look away
    From the headlights
    The red light
    Stop at the red light
    I couldn't stop at the red light
    You're just like a car crash
    Like a car crash!
    And I can't look away! Writer/s: BARRY STOCK, BRAD WALST, GAVIN BROWN, MATT WALST, NEIL SANDERSON
