Sitting in the back of a car
Music so loud, can't tell a thing
Thinking 'bout what to say
And I can't find the lines

You know I love you a lot
I just don't know should I not?

I just don't know if it's okay
Trying to get away
From everything

Why don't you take me home?
It's gone too far inside this car
I know I'll feel a whole lot more
When I get alone
