A Car, A Torch, A Death Lyrics - Twenty One Pilots

1 The air begins to feel a little thin

2 As I start the car, and then I begin

3 To add the miles piled up behind me

4 I barely feel a smile deep inside me

5 And I begin to envy the headlights driving south

6 I want to crack the door so I can just fall out

7 But then I remember when you packed my car

8 You reached in the back and buckled up your heart

9 For me to drive away with

10 I begin to understand why God died.

11 The demons sat there waiting on her porch

12 It was a little dark so we held a makeshift torch

13 And when my car was far out of sight

14 He crept in her room and stayed there for the night

15 And then I felt chills in my bones

16 The breath I saw was not my own

17 I knew my skin that wrapped my frame

18 Wasn't made to play this game

19 And then I saw Him, torch in hand

20 He laid it out, what He had planned

21 And then I said I'll take the grave

22 Please just send them all my way

23 I began to understand why God died

24 The air begins to feel a little thin

25 As we're waiting for the morning to begin

26 But for now you told me to hold this jar

27 And when I looked inside I saw it held your heart

28 For me to walk away with

29 I began to understand why God died
