Keep the Car Running (Live at BBC Radio 1's Six Weeks Of Summer)

Every night, my dream is 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, yeah

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 seem to cross a river so deep

They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where
They don't know when
It's coming, when it's coming

There's this fear I keep so deep
Knew its name 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
They don't know when
It's coming, oh yeah
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 old place and go to when they die
You can't climb across a mountain so high
The same old city where I go when I sleep
I can't seem to cross a river so deep

They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where
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
