Lyrics written by Rich Arcati

Would someone help me,
Would someone make light,
What the hell just happened last night,
Where's my car and,
Why does this girl cry,
Keeps insisting that I apologize.

But some elation,
No cop station,
My motivation's not here right now,
And I'll accept that,
Inherent true fact,
There might be next time around...

Driving on empty,
But I'm steering away,
And all these fears they won't let me,
But I still won't brake,
Driving on empty,
But we're steering away,
And all these fears they won't let me,
But I still won't brake.

I tried out running,
To the coastline,
Why's my girl never ready on time,
I tried out loving,
Failed the first time,
Could've worked if I could make up my mind...

But some elation,
There's compensation,
Procrastination is best done right now,
And there is hope that,
What is lost can,
Still mean new destinies found...






Driving on empty,
But I'm steering away,
And all these fears they won't let me,
But I still won't brake,
Driving on empty,
But we're steering away,
And all these fears they won't let me,
But I still won't brake.

Just cause we're fooling around,
Doesn't mean that you have to stay,
We used to be so good and so bad,
With each other in so many ways,
Don't wanna make me beg for this now,
Another night just kicked me in the face,
Well I still won't slow down...

Driving on empty,
But I'm steering away,
And all these fears they won't let me,
But I still won't brake,
Driving on empty,
But we're steering away,
And all these fears they won't let me,
But I still won't brake.
