about

Link: smarturl.it/carcrashes

'Car Crashes' is a product of turbulent times and questionable choices. The song is an attempt to counter darkness, death and loneliness with humour and loud guitars. This is the first track from Megatrain's upcoming EP and we hope that in this time of global panic and isolation, it can bring some sense of catharsis.

lyrics

Car Crashes:

Car crashes, late nights and bad habits
Die harder than old Mr Willis
Did you want me to stay?
Give my reason for leaving just a couple more times

Minesweeper, look out for night-creepers
Dropping dust for the desperate drinkers
Keep my eyes on your face
I confess I never lost my faith when your head flew out to space

So tell me you’re a god
I want you to tell me what I’m made of
My friends think I’m alright
But did they really see the news last night
Another kid from my home town died
Cars crashing on the roads I used to drive
But my friends think I’m alright
Cars crashing on the roads I used to drive

And I wish that you’d call in the morning with something to say
Maybe come round for dinner and more maybe stay
You can read out the news and I’ll weep as I pray
They won’t call in the morning with something to say about the
Car crashes, my late nights or my bad habits
Die harder than old Mr Willis
I keep my eyes on your face
I could never lose the faith if you

Tell me you’re a god
I want you to tell me what you think I’m made of
My friends think I’m alright
But did they really see the news last night
Another kid from my home town died
Cars crashing on the roads I used to drive
But my friends think I’m alright
Cars crashing on the roads I used to drive

Car crashes, late nights and bad habits
Die harder than old Mr Willis
Did you want me to stay?
Give my reason for leaving just a couple more times
