backseat

lyrics

keep chasing another life
too fast, i don't realize
i don't need much, just peace of mind
well okay, tough luck

today's just another setback
i don't know about that
not gonna assume anything at all
kept my habits in a hatchback
wishes in a backpack
as i slam my head against the wall
i got too many songs that i still gotta write
i got a couple thousand summer days and beautiful nights
there's a long way to go, nah i ain't gonna lie
lights flashing till the end of the drive

i know you still don't believe me
but i never said it was easy
got my instincts playing on repeat
and a head full of plans and graffiti
so what'll you say when you see me
and i speak my mind so damn freely
well i don't need you, you don't need me
i'm done being stuck in the backseat

yeah for now i'm invisible
there's not much here to see
it's not like i'm looking for a miracle
in this sugar and this caffeine
well i'm heading off to the terminal
my body's numb, but my heart is full
i'm not a saint, i don't pretend to be
i keep my sins tied up next to me

now lately you've been out of focus
too busy to notice
everything around us falls apart
low tolerance neurosis
apathy's a bonus
when you don't have a place to start
take a break, catch a train, maybe i'll disappear
yeah i'll make a little money by the end of the year
cash out, see the world, i'll bring back souvenirs
waste some more of my life switching gears
