[Verse 1]
My car slides
My last words are:
"Help, Mother I'm..."
My car slides
I wait for cold
A fear of the dark
My car slides
And I pray to
Things I've not seen

[Chorus]
Here am I
Sad and lonely
Here am I
Quite by chance I slide

[Verse 2]
My car slides
The radio plays
"Heaven..." something
My car slides
This quiet night
Time plays slow tricks
My car slides
My clock runs down
Tick tock tick...

[Chorus]
Here am I
Sad and lonely
Here am I
Quite by chance I slide
