Lyrics

I wasn't thinking when I crossed your path
Innocent scheming so our routes overlap
And you were still drinking when you said "love you" back
And I was a deer in the headlights
I'm so bad at decisions, but I can improvise
Done a crash course on collisions, I am so qualified
I scream into the night, couldn't be more prepared if I tried
And baby, I tried
I saw you coming but I didn't move
Boys win by running and you never lose
Accidents happen, in your defense
The best precaution is some common sense
You shake your head in righteous dismay
Leave me to the side, you drive and you look away
You look away
Nothing dulls danger quite the way that hope will
Now I'm lying on your shoulder and I'm just some roadkill
Typical Sunday conversation ran dry
You didn't invite me, sure you had reasons why
I let you tell me you golfed and you walked
And you shopped and you exercised
But I gotta smile or else I'll ruin the bit
I'm still playing your savior, how could I forget?
Whatever you need is black and white right there in the script
Like paint on the pavement
I saw you coming but I didn't move
Boys win by running and you never lose
Accidents happen, in your defense
The best precaution is some common sense
You shake your head in righteous dismay
Leave me to the side, you drive and you look away
You look away
Nothing dulls danger quite the way that hope will
Now I'm lying on your shoulder like I'm just some roadkill
Every time this happens
You break me like bad habits
And headlight stars come crashing
Around my head, swirling stars round my head
In shades of blue, you leave me
My open wounds still bleeding
The sun-baked asphalt feeling
That you were gone before you left
I saw you coming but I didn't move
Boys win by running and you never lose
Accidents happen, in your defense
The best precaution is some damn common sense
You shake your head in righteous dismay
Leave me to the side, you drive and you look away
You look away
Nothing dulls danger quite the way that hope will
Nothing dulls danger quite the way that hope will
Yeah, nothing dulls danger quite the way that hope will
Now I'm lying on your shoulder like I'm just some roadkill
I'm dying on your shoulder and I'm just your roadkill
