Songtext Hit and run Third Eye Blind

Hit and run

I feel my speed through the intersection
Sheets of rain seek out cars
Hands up on the handle bars
I was late so I rode in the dark

I get a little wet but I don't have to park at the bar
The lights flash from green to red as I ride
A car turns left and I slide
I can't turn back, I made contact
Flicker into a smash mosaic
Then I start flyin'

Always think we get more time
And now I'm flying through the air
And maybe I am dying
And in this motor crash you come to mind
Don't we always think we get more time?

I go slow-mo through time and space
Details smash, protect my face
And I see yours go to a time
When we just know
Mr. Death in the car below
Doesn't even slow and away he goes
In the majesty of a motor crash
You sink into my darkness forming
Sex and death, heartbreak and strife - they bring no warning

Always think we get more time
Now I'm flying in the air
And it's you who comes to mind
And in the red lights, like Cathedrals, there's a sign
Don't we always think we get more time?

Now here it comes.
My hit and run.

Always think we get more time
Now I'm flying through the air
And it's you who comes to mind
And in the shattered glass reflections there's a sign
Cos you weren't there, and I wish we had more time

I come down hard, and I roll to my feet
And rain washes blood off concrete
People turn away from me and I just laugh
Cos I'm still flyin'
Livin' and dyin'

Always think we get more time
Now I'm flying through the air
And it's you who comes to mind
Well if this motorcycle crash it is a sign
Cos you weren't there, and I wish we had more time

I'd like to thank Mr. Death now for what he's done
Cos I got to walk away from my hit and run
And the mystery's inside of me
I was nervous to see
Cos I saw you on my hit and run
On my hit and run
