Hit The Brakes

Saint Etienne


She's waking up, 
the mirror says 
that her hairs 
getting far too long.

A coffee cup, 
to start the day, 
better make sure 
it's good and strong.

To get her through.
Got things to do.
And now that the clock says eight, 
can't be late,
so hit the brakes.

Lost all your friends 
they'd had enough,
couldn't watch 
while you killed yourself.
And you pretend 
you gave them up, 
for a lifetime of cars and wealth

Misunderstood.
Don't feel so good.
Another the clock says eight, 
can't be late 
so hit the brakes.
I said hit the brakes.
