Car Song

from Haunted House by Chalk

/

lyrics

So I'll drive out
Yeah I'll drive out to where you live
And when I get halfway
I remember I forgot where you live
And the CD player skips
And the steering wheel tends to slip
And the sun roof won't roll up
And the windows won't roll down
And the speedometer is broken
So I can't tell how fast I'm going
I just ride relative to everyone else
It doesn't let me drive quite like myself

This isn't the last time you'll feel like this
Remember the last time you felt like this
Now you wish
That she didn't exist
And you wanna go back
Before you felt like that

Gas, brake, and clutch to the floor
I'm shifting gears but I want more
Cracks in the windshield and rust on the doors
These lackluster seats make my back sore and
Sunburn got me red like a turnip
The map is torn up
Don't know where I'll turn up

This isn't the last time you'll feel like this
Remember the last time you felt like this
Now you wish
That she didn't exist
And you wanna go back
Before you felt like that

She made a promise and she isn't gonna break that
Don't look 'cause she isn't gonna wave back
Don't think when you drive into the sunset
If you do well you'll just get upset
Don't answer the phone when she calls you
Don't even let her get close to you
Do your best not to think about that one time
Or that other time, or those other times
Oh oh, or that other time, pay it no mind

When you fall behind
You look further back
Well she gave you time
But you lost track
When you cross the line
Just to get her back
And you can't believe
You would do that
