Portrait Of A Friend - Metal Collides

Not watching not listening
The glamour inside
Seems more important
Fist on the wheel
But not in control
The glamour inside
Seems more important
He didn't see it coming
Didn't hear it coming
The glamour inside
Seems more important
Horn honks, rubber begs
To hold but slips
Over wet pavement
The glamour inside
Seems more important

Bang, bang
The asphalt
Holds a scene now
Bang, bang
Channel three goes live
Bang, bang
What are we to do now
Metal collides

A body on the ground
It didn't put up a fight
Glass shattered upon trying
Trying to catch him in midflight
Paramedics rush
His life is still worth saving
Can't say the same
About the car that he crushed
Lives wouldn't be lost
If he was paying attention
