Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Play your hand

Don't play it off

Don't play that game

Out of touch

There is no pride in seconds lost

[Verse 2]

First cello suite

I know I'm late

What do you care?

Stop dragging feet

We can't go back for seconds lost

[Chorus]

Drive by, don't stop

Drive by, don't stop

Hate wins, don't stop

Hate wins, don't stop

[Verse 3]

Smooth the sheets

No one was here and never will

Wind your watch for seconds gone

[Chorus]

Drive by, don't stop

Drive by, don't stop

Hate wins, don't stop

Hate wins, don't stop

Guilt won't let you because you let it

Because you lost
