backseat - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

In the backseat of your best friend's car

The destination is never far enough (Far enough)

They're laughing, singing out of tune

And I can't help but look at you in love

It's tough, knowing that you'll never like me back

It, it, it, it sucks

How can I keep my distance

You're magnetic

I'm fine, I'm lying to myself

I don't want anybody else

And I've never felt more alive

As I sit next to you for the drive

I don't care, I don't care, I don't care about it

I don't care, I don't care, I don't care

Don't be scared, don't be scared, I'm okay without it

I would go anywhere for you

Now to find you again, and again, and again, and again

But, but it hurts, and it hurts, and it hurts, it hurts not knowing when

I don't wanna leave, don't leave me alone

Alone with my thoughts and fears

I don't wanna leave, please say you won't go

When you need me I'll be here

I don't wanna leave, don't leave me alone

(I make time for you, I don't have to)

Alone with my thoughts and fears

(Cancel plans while you make your own)

I don't wanna leave

(Sit and wait for you to call me)

Please say you won't go

(While you forget you have a phone)

(I wish I was special)

When you need me I'll be here

(Wish I had your full attention)

Now to find you again, and again, and again, and again

(I think I wished on a mirage)

But, but it hurts, and it hurts, and it hurts, it hurts not knowing when

(I make time for you)

(I like you but not the way you like everyone else)
