how to change a tire
I was eight years old
In a world smaller than my hands
The only pain I'd known
Was a concrete scrape back then
'Til my brother told
Me it's time to grow up and be a man
'Cause daddy build a home
With someone else, somewhere else in the state
Oh, I'm drivin' now
Ten and two without you, but I'm findin' out
I learned when it all gets low how to hold my head up higher
I learned how to change my fate despite the way I'm wired
But I'm on the side of the road and I'm all alone
With this flat ripped up reminder
That you left and let us down
And you never showed me how to change a tire
To change a tire
You never showed me how
To really love someone
Without the fear they're gonna let me go
How to stay, not run
But thanks to you, that's the love I know
I see you in my face, but I got my mother's heart
I love the light I made, but there's always a missin' part
I learned when it all gets low how to hold my head up higher
I learned how to change my fate despite the way I'm wired
But I'm on the side of the road and I'm all alone
With this flat ripped up reminder
That you left and let us down
And you never showed me how to change a tire
How to change a tire, oh
You never showed me how
You never showed me how, oh
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
How
In a world smaller than my hands
The only pain I'd known
Was a concrete scrape back then
'Til my brother told
Me it's time to grow up and be a man
'Cause daddy build a home
With someone else, somewhere else in the state
Oh, I'm drivin' now
Ten and two without you, but I'm findin' out
I learned when it all gets low how to hold my head up higher
I learned how to change my fate despite the way I'm wired
But I'm on the side of the road and I'm all alone
With this flat ripped up reminder
That you left and let us down
And you never showed me how to change a tire
To change a tire
You never showed me how
To really love someone
Without the fear they're gonna let me go
How to stay, not run
But thanks to you, that's the love I know
I see you in my face, but I got my mother's heart
I love the light I made, but there's always a missin' part
I learned when it all gets low how to hold my head up higher
I learned how to change my fate despite the way I'm wired
But I'm on the side of the road and I'm all alone
With this flat ripped up reminder
That you left and let us down
And you never showed me how to change a tire
How to change a tire, oh
You never showed me how
You never showed me how, oh
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
How
