Normandy

We drove through the misty canyons

Our destination seemed resolved

But through highbeams tragedy called

It seemed like a normal evening

We rode in silent walls between

Our wills like guillotines

I sped on mountain roads as

Your words came piercing through my chest

I'm your usual subject

I turned my head in defense

That's when I heard you crash



In siren screams like rival factions

Two stories are told

We never knew at any moment

We might just implode



They're watching you crashing into

Crashing into me

And wishing they had what we see

Had what we see

Had what we believe



We were magnetic fields when

We came together long ago

You glowed like burning halos

But we spent a lifetime on the 

Beaches of Normandy in vain

What for I can't explain



I looked to you from the darkened highway

Facing you in tears

And in that moment, metal twisted

And you disappeared



They're watching you crashing into

Crashing into me

And wishing they had what we see

Had what we see

Had what we believe



A fatal evening's drive is what they always will assume

But I know better as I collide face first with you
