Backseat
I always end up in the backseat
My friends up front are always laughing
At questions they don't ask me
So I know these backstreets pretty well
The windows down, the music blasting
The city loud, the party happening
But part of me is acting
In the time I'm passing by myself
And life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
We finally reach our destination
And I receive an invitation
To join the conversation
But my imagination kills itself
And life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat, yeah
In the backseat
Why I'm in the backseat
I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
Tell me where we're going
I'm getting kind of carsick here in the back
Tired of not knowing
But scared of how I might just overreact
If I was in the front seat
I'd feel like I was driving into the black
But everyone around me
Presses on the gas so matter of fact
So life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat waiting while
Life flies by
And I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
My friends up front are always laughing
At questions they don't ask me
So I know these backstreets pretty well
The windows down, the music blasting
The city loud, the party happening
But part of me is acting
In the time I'm passing by myself
And life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
We finally reach our destination
And I receive an invitation
To join the conversation
But my imagination kills itself
And life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat, yeah
In the backseat
Why I'm in the backseat
I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
Tell me where we're going
I'm getting kind of carsick here in the back
Tired of not knowing
But scared of how I might just overreact
If I was in the front seat
I'd feel like I was driving into the black
But everyone around me
Presses on the gas so matter of fact
So life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat waiting while
Life flies by
And I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
