Lyrics

on the road of my own life
i sit in the backseat
i wait on the sidelines
for someone to ask me
i let the gas run out
i let the road turn
i let the car fall out
i let the car burn
i sit behind
an empty chair
where a driver
should be sitting there
and i'd ask
to turn off the air
if i could
only speak
i look like i'm in charge
like i live and breathe
my father spoke of leaders
but he left me in the backseat
ooh
in the backseat
ooh
we stood in the smoke room
i choked on the air
i think of her last breath
but try to look like i don't care
as i listen to you talk
i think of my lungs
i hold my breath quietly
as the cigarette hums
i guess if i'd had
a vertebrae
i would sit somewhere
out of the way
and i'd ask
to turn up the air
if i could
only speak
i look like i'm in charge
like i'm a whole being
but you'd swear i'm an amoeba
cause i'm always in the backseat
ooh
in the backseat
ooh
my father spoke of leaders
but i'm sitting in the backseat
my family wished for leaders
but i'm sitting in the backseat
my legacy is leaders
but I'm sitting in the backseat
i wish i was a leader
but i'm always in the backseat
