Passenger Seat

We called it a party

Even though everybody was sad

You showed up with some coffee

Stated moving at seven am

You were having trouble sleeping

I was having trouble keeping still

When we talk it's like a meeting

Full of budgets and utilities

Driving on the highway home

This time alone

Doesn't mean the same without you

I turned on the radio to something slow

Just to let it fuck with my mood

And songs don't sound the same

Without you in the passenger seat

Without you

In the passenger seat

We made a deal when we started

And we knew it would take some work

Every day was like a party

And living life with no concern

I remember the feeling

Of driving to my parents' place

I'd lean on in to kiss you

See the gap toothed smile on your face

Driving on the highway home

This time alone

Doesn't mean the same without you

I turned on the radio to something slow

Just to let it fuck with my mood

And songs don't sound the same

Without you in the passenger seat

Without you

You and I always laughed at the system

No, we wouldn't be just another statistic

We said those things all those years ago

I read some things I shouldn't have seen

And you look like you've given up trying

You think I don't care

When you walk in the room

Katie just tell me

Now what can I do

Driving on the highway home

This time alone

Doesn't mean the same without you

I turned on the radio to something slow

Just to let it fuck with my mood

When the road starts to bend

And the signal ends

And only static's coming through

I think about the things you said

They all go in my head

I'm alone because I know it's true

And songs don't sound the same

Without you in the passenger seat

Without you

In the passenger seat
