lyrics

I am wasting all my quarters
paying tolls and placing orders before I go back to sleep.
The liquor stores are all closed up
and frankly, things – they could be worse,
but right now I’m just trying not to feel.

I am wasting in this motel,
wondering what the hell I did to make you leave.
Cuz you’re smiling in all your pictures now
and I just don’t understand how
it’s fair that you can laugh when I can’t breathe.

Winter came and we were doing fine.
As spring drew near, you were selfish all the time.

I don’t want to blame – I’m not going to blame you, but I am lost.
Drive, I’m driving away – I’m pushing away what I have lost today.

I am holding all my questions,
getting cozy with the pressure of all my uncertainty.
So follow me but not too close
if I’m the one you want the most
but love me from afar so I am free.

Summer came and I thought I was fine.
Now fall is here and I am selfish all the time.

I don’t want to blame – I’m not going to blame you, but I am lost.
Drive, I’m driving away – I’m pushing away what I have lost today.

I won’t waste the rest of autumn
feeling foiled, feeling fallen,
in the face of all my fears.

I don’t want to blame – I’m not going to blame you, but I am lost.
Drive, I’m driving away – I’m pushing away what I have lost today.
