Petrol (2008 Remaster)

The cars come up the drive
Too many people inside
Under the stars they smile
They want to invade my home

I pace the darkened hall
I try to consider it all
In the dull lamps glow
And the truth is I don't know

The cars stop outside
They all stay inside
The house is drenched in light
But what have I done wrong?

I quietly climb the stairs
I remember all the years
I check everything is right
I need to hurry now

I've been preparing for days
I know exactly what to say
No one will be around
No one will take me down

They'll all get in back in the cars
And maybe they'll go home
But the thing's they'll never know
Like where it is I go
