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 it's name since before I could speak:
Aaaah aaaaaah aaaaah aaaaaah
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 It's 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
