[Verse 1]

When I was with you at the CVS

Couldn't choose between two items to get

They were basically the same, but I was hesitant

So you picked one for me and you shook your head

I overthink everything, I think too much

So I rely on you, 'cause you think just enough

Called you on the phone, to use you as a crutch

To convince me the path I'm on is the right one


[Pre-Chorus]

For a minute making music was little fun

But you said, that was just 'cause I was in a rut

At my parents house for what was to be a month

Was nearly a year not talking to anyone

Told me, that's why moving to LA, would be fun

And I could always get a job if I needed funds

Knew you were right, but I just wasn't sure enough


[Chorus]

Always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

Always trip over decisions, let things happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

Know I always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

I could never make decisions, let them happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having


[Verse 2]

I know that it's me

I doubt myself too much

So when you give me reasons

I take them in like a sponge

You always make up your mind

I follow you like a dog

If you hadn't got the blanket, we would never have touched

If you hadn't of kissed me, we would never have fucked


[Chorus]

Always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

Always trip over decisions, let things happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

Know I always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

I could never make decisions, let them happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having


[Bridge]

Always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

Always trip over decisions, let things happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

Know I always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

I could never make decisions, let them happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having


[Outro]

I always drive my own life from the backseat

Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me

I could never make decisions, let them happen

Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having
