In the back-seat of my heart
My love tells me I'm a mess
I couldn't get the car to start
I left my keys somewhere in the mess
It comes and goes in plateaus one month later I'm a fucking pro
My parents would be proud
Oh fall asleep on the floor forget what happened in the morning
There are notes in your handwriting so you can make it out
We are not a proud race
It's not a race at all
We're just trying
I'm only trying to get home
Drunk drivers drunk drivers
This is not a good thing
I don't mean to rationalise
Or try and explain it away
It's not okay
Drunk drivers drunk drivers
Verse
Its too late to articulate it
That empty feeling
We share the same fate as the people you hate
You built yourself up against others feelings
Then it left you feeling empty
As a car coasting down hill
I have become such a negative person
It was all just an act
It was all so easily stripped away
But if we learn how to live like this
Maybe we can learn how to start again
Like a child who has never done wrong
Who hasn't taken that first step
We are not a proud race
It's not a race at all
We're just trying
I'm only trying to get home
Drunk drivers drunk drivers
Put it out of your mind
And perish the thought
There's no comfort in responsibility
Drunk drivers drunk drivers
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
Killer whales killer whales
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
Killer whales killer whales
Is that voice in your head
Giving you shit again
But you know he loves you
and he doesn't mean to cause you pain
Please listen to him
It's not too late
Turn off the engine
Get out of the car and start to walk
Drunk drivers drunk drivers drunk drivers drunk drivers
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
Killer whales killer whales
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
It doesn't have to be like this
Killer whales killer whales
