Backseat Heroine

I had a staring contest with a bottle of wine
I wondered who'd be empty first, you or I
Not one to be untrue, especially to someone I never knew
I'll keep him in the lines just for you

Here I am, I'm the backseat heroine
Your shotgun ride is just a lie
Here I am, I'm the backseat heroine
You'd be surprised by the way he drives

He wanted my touch
Cause the distance between us wasn't nearly as much
He prayed on my lust
He just needs me to be with him so that he can play the victim
Not one to be untrue, especially to someone I never knew
My tempted hands are tied just for you

Here I am, I'm the backseat heroine
Your shotgun ride is just a lie
Here I am, I'm the backseat heroine
You'd be surprised by the way he drives

Oh it's never worth the price of the rush
But how do I separate the crash from the crush?

Here I am, I'm the backseat heroine
Your shotgun ride is just a lie
Here I am, I'm the backseat heroine
You'd be surprised by the way he drives
