I don't care to be scared When I drive my haunted car Ghost red hot tonight My gaze in the rear view mirror 'Cause I see The Backseat Of My Car Yes I see The Backseat Of My Car Oh i see The Backseat Of My Car Shopping bags falling down Apples roll, magazine crumpled In the heat of night Milk leaks, sucked up by the velvet You want a lift? Hop in the back How far do you want to go? All the way? Ok

I used to like the morning I'd survived another night I'd walk to breakfast through the garden See the flowers stretching in the sunlight Now I wake up in the morning And all the kindness is drained out of me I spend hours just wincing And trying to regain some sense of peace If only I could sustain my anger Feel it grow stronger and stronger It sharpens to a point and sheds my skin Shakes off the weight of my sins And takes me to heaven I stay up late every night Out of some general protest But with no one to tell you to come to bed It's not really a contest And maybe you think I'll learn from my mistake But not this time It's just gonna break me If only I could sustain my anger Feel it grow stronger and stronger It sharpens to a point and sheds my skin Shakes off the weight of my sins And takes me to heaven And if I've lost you for good Could there have been any other way? Was the water filling up for years Or did I wreck it all in a day? I'm going to bed now I've sunk into my sorrows And it'll take three hundred million dollars To get me up tomorrow I won't go down with this shit I will put my hands up and surrender There will be no more flags above my door I have lost and always will be It was an expensive mistake It was an expensive mistake My horse broke his back to get me here I have his blood on my hands for no reason But what was I supposed to do? How was I supposed to know how to use a tube amp? How was I supposed to know how to drive a van? How was I supposed to know how to ride a bike without hurting myself? How was I supposed to know how to make dinner for myself? How was I supposed to know how to hold a job? How was I supposed to remember to grab my backpack After I set it down to play basketball? How was I supposed to know how to not get drunk Every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and why not Sunday? How was I supposed to know how steer this ship? How the hell was I supposed to steer this ship? It was an expensive mistake You can't say you're sorry and it's over I was given a body that is falling apart My house is falling apart I was given a mind that can't control itself I was given a ship that can't steer itself (and what about a vacation?) What about a vacation to feel good? My horse broke his back and left me here How was I supposed to know? And God won't forgive me And you won't forgive me Not unless I open up my heart And how am I supposed to do that When I go to this same room every night? Sleep in the same bed every night Same fucking bed With the red comforter, with the white stripes And the yellow ceiling light makes me feel like I'm dying This sea is too familiar How many nights have I drowned here? How many times have I drowned? I give up I give up Let us take you back to where we came in We were united, an undivided nation We got divided, it was something inside us It was not us We were so naive, we were just like animals Told what to believe by the beasts who took control We wanted control too, but that was normal 'Cause our life was one of survival The decisions we've made, if you can call it deciding With your life on the line It'd be social suicide to change your mind So we got mad and we split the scene Now we download all of our shit for free It's the new economy We have nothing to offer and we sleep on trash I give up I give up Let us take you back to where you came in A man clinging to the cliff of revelation So scared of what he would find, he started crying: "It was not me" Stopped at the borderline, they stripped his disguise So he read a book that won a Pulitzer prize It was about death, it didn't help He saw himself in it He was disturbed at the conclusions that it led to But he couldn't say what because the author was dead too And so though he made fun of us He has now become one of us I give up I give up I give up I give up I give up I give up I give up And you wake up trembling From a dream where I swam into the river I reach out and hold you in my arms I love you, I love you, I love you

Heaven's in the back seat of my cadillac - Let me take you there Yeah yeah. Heaven's in the back seat of my cadillac - Let me take you there Yeah yeah. Can't stand it Can't stand it Baby When I'm close to you I wanna touch you There are people ev'rywhere People who like to stare Can't take it Baby Let's get outta here. Heaven's in the back seat of my cadillac Let's do it Let's do it Baby Let's go for a ride out in the countryside.

My boy, we don't see each other much My boy, we don't see each other much It'll take some time But somewhere down the line We won't be alone My boy, we don't see each other much My boy, we don't see each other much It'll take some time But somewhere down the line We won't be alone My boy, we don't see each other much My boy, we don't see each other much It'll take some time But somewhere down the line We won't be-

I should be glad to have you back But this time around, something's turned to black Your pale body a projection screen I know every frame, so many times that I've seen Will it be like before? Will it ever be the same? If we reuse the cels Would the color start to fade? It's history that hasn't happened yet Last time I cried, this time I sweat And doesn't it seem, and doesn't it seem an awful waste That all of our cells will get replaced? Will it be like before? Will it ever be the same? If we reuse the cels Would the color start to fade? Will it be like before? Will I lose you again? If we reuse ourselves Could there be any other end? If it's just like before If I'm losing you again Still we reuse the cels

When you're wide awake Say it for goodness sake It's gonna be a great day While you're standing there Get up and grab a chair It's gonna be a great day And it won't be long, oh no It won't be long, it won't be long, no no It won't be long, it won't be long, oh no It won't be long, it won't be long, ooh Ooh, ooh, yeah Gonna be a great day And it won't be long, oh no It won't be long, it won't be long, no no It won't be long, it won't be long, oh no It won't be long, it won't be long, ooh When you're wide awake Say it for goodness sake It's gonna be a great day While you're standing there Get up and grab a chair It's gonna be a great day

Motor cars, handlebars Bicycles for two Broken-hearted jubilee Parachutes, Army boots Sleeping bags for two Sentimental jamboree "Buy, buy" Says the sign in the shop window "Why, why?" Says the junk in the yard Candlesticks, building bricks Something old and new Memories for you and me "Buy, buy" Says the sign in the shop window "Why, why?" Says the junk in the yard

Yesterday All my troubles seemed so far away Now it looks as though they're here to stay Oh, I believe in yesterday Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be There's a shadow hanging over me Oh, yesterday came suddenly Why she had to go? I don't know She wouldn't say I, said, something wrong Now I long for yesterday Yesterday Love was such an easy game to play Now I need a place to hide away Oh, I believe in yesterday Why she had to go? I don't know She wouldn't say I, said, something wrong Now I long for yesterday Yesterday Love was such an easy game to play Now I need a place to hide away Oh, I believe in yesterday Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

If you love me, won't you call me? I've been waiting, waiting too long In my soul is constant yearning Always singing, singing this song Only love is strong enough to take it on the chin When did I begin to fall? Anyway, anyway You can make that call You feel free to make yourself at home If we could be closer longer That would help me, help me so much We can cure each other's sorrow Won't you please, please, please get in touch? If our love is strong enough, it may never end Why would I pretend to fall? Anyway, anyway You can make that call You feel free to make yourself at home Anyway, anyway Anyway at all Anyway that you can make that call

I know there must be other ways of feeling free But this is what I wanna do, who I wanna be Every time I try, I feel like I can fly But I know that I could die trying I'm slidin', glidin' through the air I can see my body through windows in my hair I'm slidin', glidin' through the air I know nobody's dancing here but us dragonflies We're the only ones awake, we own the skies Every time I try, I feel like I can fly But I know that I could die trying I'm slidin', glidin' through the air I can see my body through windows in my hair I'm slidin', glidin' through the air I'm slidin', glidin' through the air I can see my body through windows in my hair I'm slidin', glidin' through the air I can feel my body burn slidin' through the air
