The Backseat
Jesus died and rose again
When he was 33
While I'm just watching Mean Girls
On my smarter-than TV
I'll never be the next great artist
But I'll cheer from the backseat
They say if everyone is someone
Then you can't be anything
Do you remember
Remember when
We both felt so close to human
And I'd like to believe
This is not what we've resigned to
But I'm waiting
I've been waiting
To be proven right
I dream in simple melodies
Like hamsters in a cage
There's a whole colossal universe
I'm too afraid to face
Death sits and bides his time
As we impatiently wait
I understand my vices
And I know my fuckin' place
Do you remember
Remember when
We felt so close
So close to human
And I'd like to believe
This is not what we've resigned to
But I'm waiting
I've been waiting
To be proven right
Dead and hollow
Midwestern eyes
Trapped inside a
Sunken little skull
Unconscious
Dissociated
Behind the wheel
Bracing for the fall
When he was 33
While I'm just watching Mean Girls
On my smarter-than TV
I'll never be the next great artist
But I'll cheer from the backseat
They say if everyone is someone
Then you can't be anything
Do you remember
Remember when
We both felt so close to human
And I'd like to believe
This is not what we've resigned to
But I'm waiting
I've been waiting
To be proven right
I dream in simple melodies
Like hamsters in a cage
There's a whole colossal universe
I'm too afraid to face
Death sits and bides his time
As we impatiently wait
I understand my vices
And I know my fuckin' place
Do you remember
Remember when
We felt so close
So close to human
And I'd like to believe
This is not what we've resigned to
But I'm waiting
I've been waiting
To be proven right
Dead and hollow
Midwestern eyes
Trapped inside a
Sunken little skull
Unconscious
Dissociated
Behind the wheel
Bracing for the fall
