Backseat Lyrics by Neanderthal

2021

[Verse 1]
When I was with you at the CVS
Couldn't choose between two items to get
They were basically the same, but I was hesitant
So you picked one for me and you shook your head

I overthink everything, I think too much
So I rely on you, 'cause you think just enough
Called you on the phone, to use you as a crutch
To convince me the path I'm on is the right one

[Pre-Chorus]
For a minute making music was little fun
But you said, that was just 'cause I was in a rut
At my parents house for what was to be a month
Was nearly a year not talking to anyone

Told me, that's why moving to LA, would be fun
And I could always get a job if I needed funds
Knew you were right, but I just wasn't sure enough

[Chorus]
Always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
Always trip over decisions, let things happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

Know I always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
I could never make decisions, let them happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

[Verse 2]
I know that it's me
I doubt myself too much
So when you give me reasons
I take them in like a sponge

You always make up your mind
I follow you like a dog
If you hadn't got the blanket, we would never have touched
If you hadn't of kissed me, we would never have fucked

[Chorus]
Always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
Always trip over decisions, let things happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

Know I always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
I could never make decisions, let them happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

[Bridge]
Always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
Always trip over decisions, let things happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

Know I always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
I could never make decisions, let them happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having

[Outro]
I always drive my own life from the backseat
Driving too slow in the fast lane 'til you pass me
I could never make decisions, let them happen
Always controlled by the bad thoughts I was having
