I think of you most often when I’m driving down the highway
All the cars that are surrounding me are seeing people I won’t see
I find comfort in knowing everyone has someone to run to
Even you
I held your hand the tightest when we would watch scary movies
Because you’d know how I’d get sometimes with the afterlife
And I don’t want to think about that until I am 23, or not at all
But cuz I have to:
Spellcheck my obituary, I don’t want that guy to lose his job
And I lose myself most often making nonsense about problems
That are not affecting me in any way
I cannot stay alone with myself for longer than a second
My mind jumps to conclusions I’m too afraid to say
Spellcheck my obituary, I don’t want that guy to lose his job
And maybe later we could all hang out together
But for right now it just feels too wrong
But, you could come over and we could dance
We could make out or shake hands
You wanna talk it out?
Or do you wanna block it out?
You’re the book I couldn’t read cuz I skipped right to the ending
You wanna block it out?
Or do you wanna talk it out?
You wanna block it out?
Spellcheck my obituary, I wouldn’t want that guy to lose his job
And maybe later we could all hang out together
But for right now it just feels too wrong
