Ivy growing on my gates Where the murmur emanates Like a walk into a big parade Smothered by the escapades Early May we heard that tune And it echoed down the avenue And the street felt empty most of June Softened faces filtered through The fear of the distance to the floor The warmth of a place that you adore So what are we breathing faster for? Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear 'Cause we're all just rabbits in the headlights here Come on wash away that frightened voice that creeps into your ear Because we're all just rabbits in the headlights here Throw my mind up to the wind Everyone's the same within 'Cause the smallest thing can break the skin Crack along our fingerprints The drop of a weight down to the floor Release all the pressure on your jaw So swim, come and meet me by the shore Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear 'Cause we're all just rabbits in the headlights here Come on wash away that frightened voice that creeps into your ear Because we're all just rabbits in the headlights here Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear 'Cause we're all just rabbits in the headlights here Come on wash away that frightened voice that creeps into your ear Because we're all just rabbits in the headlights here Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear 'Cause we're all just rabbits in the headlights here
