lyrics
Eye’s on the horizon
And hands on the wheel
I gotta put in some distance
To know how I feel
And so I
Drive toward the fading light
Cut through the heavy night
And out the other side
You hit me like a dragnet
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I said it
I’m caught up in your dragnet
And we’re going down
I picture you back then as the day starts to break
Still claiming the high ground
On the crest of a wave
But then we start to slide
Caught in the rising tide
And swimming our lives
You hit me like a dragnet
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I said it
I’m caught up in your dragnet
And we’re going down
Such an empty thing
This early morning wind
So I fill it with the words I wanna whisper in your ear
“I wish we’d never been”
You hit me like a dragnet
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I said it
I’m caught up in your dragnet
I’m straining ‘til I break it
You hit me and I felt it
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I felt it
You hit me like a dragnet
And I’m getting out
And hands on the wheel
I gotta put in some distance
To know how I feel
And so I
Drive toward the fading light
Cut through the heavy night
And out the other side
You hit me like a dragnet
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I said it
I’m caught up in your dragnet
And we’re going down
I picture you back then as the day starts to break
Still claiming the high ground
On the crest of a wave
But then we start to slide
Caught in the rising tide
And swimming our lives
You hit me like a dragnet
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I said it
I’m caught up in your dragnet
And we’re going down
Such an empty thing
This early morning wind
So I fill it with the words I wanna whisper in your ear
“I wish we’d never been”
You hit me like a dragnet
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I said it
I’m caught up in your dragnet
I’m straining ‘til I break it
You hit me and I felt it
Deep below the surface
Caught up in your bullshit
Like everybody else was
I loved you like I meant it
You loved the way I felt it
You hit me like a dragnet
And I’m getting out
