Citizen - The Night I Drove Alone Lyrics
I ran away from you, now look how far I’ve got.
I shared some secrets that I hope you’d keep,
They’re words that don’t come out.
And I should’ve crashed the car the night I drove alone.
Escape from August cold.
And you talk like someone else.
I ran away from you, and now something's killing me.
You hang me up as a souvenir of what I couldn’t be.
And I should’ve crashed the car when I was all alone.
Escape from all I know.
And you talk like someone else.

Citizen The Night I Drove Alone Comments

I remember listening to this in high school..

"Call of the void" feeling, when listening to this late at night on the highway
0:17 god bless you! that was a big one.
24. gonna end it before 30
wown my life is a shitty joke!
so is mine
...this hits me in the feels 😔
Fuck I'm so sad
Listin to my music
I adore this song. How soft the background music is contrasting with the parts he yells, literal chills.
I'm so happy I found this
don't listen this song when you're driving...
This album has always been something that i don't just listen to but i feel.
Colby Brock I thought you singed this😭😔
Hey soz for being that guy but I love this guys and I was hoping that maybe you could check out my latest thing and see what you think, maybe leave some feedback. That would be amazing tbh, if Not that’s cool. Cheers
a few years ago i fell in love for the first time.
i couldn't realise what happened at the time.
i knew i liked her, but i couldn't admit it.
so i never asked her out.
but we would hangout constantly.
sometimes we didn't sleep, we'd go to school and be up for 3 days almost.
every night, every morning.
i knew we were more than friends at the time, and i could never take the step further.
not that i was scared, i just felt so alone, like i still do.
i didn't want to lose her because i had nobody else.
i got a text from her one night, said she was in trouble and some guy was following her.
i showed up and he started attacking her.
i ran up to him and pushed him away. he came for me again and i snapped. saying words and speaking in a protective way,
she didn't like it, as most girls don't.
she felt scared and intimidated that maybe id hurt her because i was able to hurt him.
i got into my car and started driving off since she walked off and didn't seem like she was coming back.
i left her a text saying goodnight and the next hours were insane.
i kept getting calls and texts from random numbers and the messages and words when i picked up the one wouldnt make any sense.
they did after anyways.
it was storming the later and i thought id go see if she was okay.
i showed up at her house and she texted me to leave and she never wanted to see me again.
i have no idea where i went wrong.
i said nothing bad when fending off the attacker.
so i left in heaps of sadness, cluelessness, and anxiety.
i couldn't see a thing because my windshield wipers were dull and i was apparently on a really busy road.
going about 95 in a 60 trying to find a place to stop and think.
two semis came from either side of me and seemed as tho i was going to be smashed between them.
i floored it with hope in my eyes and braced for impact.
i got really nauseous and my sugar dropped. and couldn't see anything. i thought i went blind.
my ears rang so loudly i couldn't bare the situation. i thought i was smashed and was a goner.
but instead a woman came to my window and said "What are you doing in the road?"
I looked around confused.
Then she said "If it's the girl you so desperately seek and desire the acceptance of, you're not wasting your time on thee idea, you're wasting time on the girl."
this song has literally helped me through that so much.
I don't know what's next for my travels, but hopefully i don't waste my time
I cant listen to this song when Im driving
R.I.P ELI... We had plans to meet up and go see them.. The addiction got the best of you though... Fly high buddy
Love this song and band
this song hits so hard
Sounds like a lil peep sample
Wouldnt doubt it, has that vibe
I didn't liked this song at first but now... whoa actually it is pretty great
This song live is something else
I should have crashed the car
First time listening to this and this shit is deep.
stay strong friends... sometimes you have to lose yourself before you can find yourself
414 people crashed their car
WHY DID IT TAKE ME THIS LONG TO FIND THIS BAND?????
This song is amazing
This isn't the title.of this song this is "how does it feel"
i miss my gf she fukn died LMAO
her names loren btw she gave the best top and always brought me nachos (WHAT A STEAL)
I'm seeing these guys live next week and I can't wait. This song in particular means everything to me.
Malicious Megan ah!! That’s so cool! I hope you have a great time at the concert
Man, the first time I heard this song I was so very close to letting it play out my closing notes.
I'm not sure I'm out of the woods yet, but I'm not so confident. That's the scary part about a suicidal episode. Sometimes it grips you, and your mind tells you it's the absolute greatest solution. There will be no wrong, no sorrow, no pain. Just freedom. Just bliss. Just abyss. And you are so utterly compelled by that, it's not until you finally look away that you see the ramifications. The forest from the trees.
Make sure you look around, you're worth more than you think.
RyanKaufman I needed this
Why do I feel like citizen was inspired by The Wedding Singer?
One day, I hope to find the courage to drive my car off a cliff while playing this song...
I love you Citizen. Can't wait to see you guys for the 4th time this summer!🖤
So fucking raw
Good song for racing my Chevy doing 75mph on country roads
He doesn't talk to me like he used to. He keeps me at arms length and seemingly forgotten all the things hes said to me. I cry and cry and no one really hears me. I keep looking at this bottle of pills and think of eating them all. I might check myself into the hospital soon but then again, maybe not.
The night i drove a loan
Its always you.
Now I know where hellboy came from
abused and manipulated for four years... i should’ve crashed the car...
Just perfect
i should have crashed the car... oh how many lonely drives wanting to... ♥️
I want to crash my car.
I seen them live and they played this it's a fucking amazing song sad yet good at the same time.
Saw this song live last month and let me tell you it was BEAUTIFUL
this was one of the songs i listened to just before driving off a cliff...
There music makes me feel things. Idk it makes me emotional. In a good and bad way
The verse sounds a lot like the start of MakeDamnSure or is it just me?
I was with a girl for 4.5 years and it ended up not working out...:/ married and all its a shame to see her go but I think I'll make it :/
Sad normies: some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck. some nights I call it a draw.
Sad alternative kids: AND I SHOULD'VE CRASHED THE CAR!!! THE NIGHT I DROVE ALONE! ESCAPE FROM ALL I KNOW!!
Just seen them live last night they are fucking awesome
i should've crashed the car 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Colby my dude whats wrong
I’m here because of colby
5 years later it still kills me.
This Song Is Great
Amazing album
One of those songs that can be interpreted In many forms by all of us. This song is painfully beautiful.
Makes my pint up emotions show
I feel edgy saying this but fuck it
I have depression and I keep it hidden from everyone I love and it's slowly killing me
I'm afraid to tell people
I'm afraid they won't listen to me or believe me...
I cant stand the edgy depressed 12 year olds holy shit
Lilpeep sanpled this rip
I just broke up:/ she said she thinks of someone else and doesnt feel the same. Pff it happened at the time i was really in love with her. Idk what to do
ilias thanos I’m really sorry, I hope things get better dude
@RP9 Thanks a lot man, I'm feeling a lot better now
still listening in 2018
I love the emotion behind the chorus.
Geez..2018 anyone ?
Eight times a day
Jeez. The beginning of this song is genuinely hard to listen to. Like, not in a bad way, it's just so emotionally painful.

Citizen crashposting
I'm not tearing up because then my depression will hit and then I'll start thinking about death and then I'll start thinking about life and how we're all gonna die and then I'll have a crisis and then I'll shave all my hair off and something really expensive to compensate for my lucid mortality
**cries really hard**
this song is too good to pass on
Does anyone have any similar songs to this
Valentine's day be like :
dying 😭😞
My ex and I used to blast this driving through the city at 2 AM. Every time I listen to it I die a little inside.
I’m tired of faking I’m ok, I’m hurting and it won’t get better but hey that’s life 🙁
I've lost two people in the past 2 months, I just wanna be numb ;/
Anyone know any other songs/ similar bands to this, this song gives me chills and I'm searching for that feeling all over again.
I love this
omg a car ad...
I can't wait to die. This song hits home.
Fuck.
when i listen this song, i want to escape all what i know!
live numb die young
I would have crashed the car but I didn't have any car insurance...... so, yeah............
23 years old and realizing the unfairness and difficult predicaments of life.
