that night i saw your brakelights
from halfway down the road
when i was doing what i wasn't supposed to
was worried that you'd know
and the money that our parents gave us
it got us what we needed
why not push a little poison into my lungs?
you know, life's so fleeting
go ahead and blow that stop sign
coming round the bend
why not start a revolution?
don't you know how these things end?
and i'm choosing not to read the story
though i know just how it goes
when i put the strings in the wrong places, it's cause i'm in the throes
of the worst time of my life
turn out the nightlight
so don't forget to feed the parking meter
when you drive around that beater
that your mom left for you all those years ago
don't hesitate to let me into your life
i'm really not that nice but i can act any way you want me to
that night i staked myself out
for the following few weeks
oh please forgive me
don't you know that i've been working like a freak?
and the tattoo on my left arm
reminds me of the ways that i've
gone back on all my promises
since the oxford comma waved goodbye
that was eight months ago
but i know you're not letting this one go
so don't forget to feed the parking meter
when you drive around that beater
that your mom left for you all those years ago
don't hesitate to let me into your life
i'm really not that nice, but i can act any way you want me to
for the first time in my life
i'm choosing not to fight
so don't forget to feed the parking meter
when you drive around that beater
that your mom left for you all those years ago
don't hesitate to let me into your life
i'm really not that nice, but i can act any way you want me to
