The Passenger Seat of a 2014 Nissan

I used to drive on the highway
You'd look at your phone upset
So we'd try to find an overlook
To spark up a pre-roll or cigarette
While I used to drive on the highway
You would find a gas station
After a concert that went late
Spare me a 20 to get back to campus
And on that 101 drive
I fell in love with life
I need that tonight and-
And as it washes over me
I blink these blurry eyes to sleep
Cause between the mountains
And the cities separating we
You keep getting better
And I just keep on getting weak
I dream of the nights that will never be again
Cause you're just you and I'm just me
And I'm scared that's all we'll ever be
Now when I drive on the highway
I notice an empty seat
Where you're supposed to be
Singing every word along with me
Remember when we drove to Malibu
Gettin faded on the beach
Well I didn't know it then
But the smallest moments are everything
And after that PCH drive
I remember every single stride
You took as you walked away that night
And then it all washes over me
I blink these blurry eyes to sleep
Cause between the mountains
And the cities separating we
You keep getting better
And I just keep on getting weak
I dream of the nights that will never ever be again
Cause you're just you and I'm just me
And I'm scared that's all we'll ever be
I used to drive on the highway
But now I've got nowhere to go
Now that I've lost you
Now that I've lost hope
But then it all washes over me
I open my eyes and I can see
The blue of the sky, the stains on my teeth
And I write about getting better
And all in all I wouldn't change a thing
If we had it once that's enough for me
Cause if you're you and I'm just me
Well goddamn I guess that's all I could hope we would ever be
