Something down the road didn't happen yet
Something you'd forget
Like that night in the shower
You got that tattoo on your lower back
You said you'd regret in a month or an hour
Don't speak too soon
You might lose your breath or your fear of death
Or the way that you went to your mother's house
After you ran out on me while I was in the shower
And I'm stuck here still like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Your fingers grip the wheel as you're pulling out your parent's driveway
You're staring down the road, burying your heart in the ashtray
And you think it's gonna grow like a wildflower on the side of the highway
You got stopped by the cops putting lipstick on
For your junior prom
You looked so pretty, he let you off
You always said that it creeped you out, and it let you down
And it made you think less of the law
You can sleep on the floor 'cause you're scared of heights
And you're scared you might turn into your mother
I'll sleep in the rain, under your headlights
On a school night, I'll be outside your front door
And I'm stuck here still like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Your fingers grip the wheels as you're pullin' out your parent's driveway
You're staring down the road, burying your heart in the ashtray
And you think it's gonna grow like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway
