"how to change a tire" lyrics

I was 8 years old in a world smaller than my hands
The only pain I'd know was a concrete scrape back than
Til' my brother told me it's time to grow up and be a man
Cause daddy buoying a home with someone else somewhere else out there

Oh I'm driving now
10 and 2 without you
But I'm finding out

I learned when it all gets low how to hold my head up higher
I learned how to change my fate despite the way I'm wired
But I'm on the side of the road and I'm all alone
With this flat ripped up reminder
That you left and let us down
And you never showed me how to change a tire

To change a tire
You never showed me how

To really love someone
Without the fear their gonna let me go
How to stay not run
But thanks to you that's the love I know
I see you in my face
But I got my mothers heart
I love the life I made
But there's always a missing part

I learned when it all gets low how to hold my head up higher
I learned how to change my fate despite the way I'm wired
But I'm on the side of the road and I'm all alone
With this flat ripped up reminder
That you left and let us down
And you never showed me how to change a tire

How to change a tire
Ohhhhh
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
Ohhhhh
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
You never showed me how
