DRIVE-BY

I saw your dads car drive by 

On the street along my place

Not sure if I’m making shit up

But the brake lights blinked and bet you saw my face 


So why didn’t you run me over?

Pick my body off the street

I would’ve done anything for you,

before I learnt how to breathe


But I miss my face, when you made me smile

I complicate things, self destruct when loving me gets tiring

These days I miss it when you drive by, leave your things by my bed side

take my clothes off in the dark

But I, I need you most when I fall apart


I stop wishing for a drive by

Stopped looking out my window 

I’m just a little aimless now 

Because love failed and nothings working out 


So tell me if you’re happy now

If yes, that makes one of us proud

Still picking up my pieces off the ground 

I shouldn’t be thinking about you now
