"Dodge Dart" lyrics

"Dodge Dart"

"There's no accounting for taste, I guess," she said
"It's just that you mirror everyone that you've ever met"
"Don't worry, I'll see you soon," and I believed you
But since then, I haven't seen you

But in better times
You were a friend of mine
You were the one who said "I don't mind"

From my house to the bus stop
I see a Dodge Dart
I fall off and it gets scary in my heart again

I didn't choose this
Clenched fists and cold breath
Pissed off that we blew it

So my best behavior
Is to be on my behavior
Next time you lay eyes on me

But I don't want to "try"
I don't wanna try
Some things should come naturally

But if they don't
You just can't force them
Cause if they won't
You just can't force them

It's rusted on the side
Your foot down on the gas
You're never looking back
You are the lucky one

Indifferent like a freeway
Stuck within a freeze frame
A 5x7 nightmare
And youth is for the lucky ones
Everywhere I go, you've colored

Please leave the car in the morning
I feel old, I get ugly when I'm sad
I'm afraid I lost the best I ever had
I'm placing an X on you
I really wish I didn't have to
White kids outside The Sev
Break bottles in the gutter
