This drama sat shotgun


"Left your t-shirt in my room
Still smells of you
And the picture you hung on the door
Lay smashed, picture perfect
Explains now
Clearly nothing left but a memory
We only made out
You never kissed me
That's how I learned to hold back all feeling
Wait, please don't go
I won't stay
All these words on replay
I'm okay, It's all right
Good to know that you're fine
Pretending everything is right to make it better
I'll hide my make-up smeared eyes
To show that I'm fine
Some how you have managed to get under my skin
More than anyone ever did
And if every hole makes a scar
And every scar marks it's place
Then I will never live freely without your trace
And it'll never be fair
I wrote my songs for you and you never even cared
So I'll forget you
I'll wash your t-shirt and kill the pillow
And cut you out of pictures
Wait, please don't go
I won't stay
All these words on replay
I'm okay, It's all right
Good to know that you're fine
Pretending everything is right to make it better
I'll hide my make-up smeared eyes...
This drama sat shotgun
My eyes rained like autumn
Only the glove box knows how the story goes
Now that this bandage is brokenAnd the cuts left in open
I'll tell you just one thing
This wasn't worth the sting."
