[Verse 1]

I wanna be roadkill

Find me a mile up ahead

Lying there on the roadside

Say, "Don't worry now, it's already dead"

Pick me up like I'm fragile

Carry me to the nearest tree

Or bury me under gravel

Just deep enough so nobody finds me


[Chorus]

I've tried to describe

Just how carefully I would carry you

And maybe I'm crazy

But some part of me had to care for you


[Verse 2]

What if I give up too soon?

A racehorse with nothing to win

Running just 'cause I'm supposed to

'Cause they bet too much money on it

And I've got nothing to fight with

But I'll do it 'cause you askеd me to

A guard dog with a death wish

In the cеnter of the ring, I lose


[Chorus]

I've tried to describe

Just how carefully I would carry you

And maybe I'm crazy

But some part of me had to care for you

What would it take for me to be cared for too?
