Intro:
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 its name just before I could speak, yeah
Oh Oh Oh Oh
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, or when but 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 see 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
Keep the car running

But they don't know where and they don't know when
It's coming, when it's coming
There's a fear I get so deep
You knew the sentence before I could speak
Oh Oh Oh Oh

But they don't know where and they don't know when
It's coming, or where but it's coming
