Backseat Lyrics by Maddy Hicks

Reclaiming

2021

[Verse 1]
I always end up in the backseat
My friends up front are always laughing
At questions they don't ask me
So I know these backstreets pretty well
The windows down, the music blasting
The city loud, the party happening
But part of me is acting
In the time I'm passing by myself

[Chorus]
And life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat

[Verse 2]
We finally reach our destination
And I receive an invitation
To join the conversation
But my imagination kills itself

[Chorus]
And life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat, yeah
In the backseat
Why I'm in the backseat
I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat

[Verse 3]
Tell me where we're going
I'm getting kind of carsick here in the back
Tired of not knowing
But scared of how I might just overreact
If I was in the front seat
I'd feel like I was driving into the black
But everyone around me
Presses on the gas so matter of fact

[Chorus]
So life flies by
While I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat waiting while

Life flies by
And I watch it around me
And I don't know
Why I'm in the backseat
