Shadow in My Backseat

[Verse 1]

You said you were fine

Half-smile

Half-lie

Playing with the lighter in your hand

Ash on my seats

Like all of the plans that we had

[Pre-Chorus]

Is it me

Is it you

Is it bad timing

Are we close

Are we ghosts

Are we still trying

Street signs flicker past like a countdown

Tell me now

Tell me now

[Chorus]

You’re a shadow in my backseat

Always there but you don’t speak

I can feel you

Can’t quite reach

Pull me under

Pull me under

You’re a habit I can’t break clean

In my blood and in my teeth

If you leave

I still won’t sleep

Pull me under

Pull me under

[Verse 2]

You stare at my phone

Say you trust me

Sure

But your pulse is running sideways

Laughing too loud

At a joke you didn’t really hear

Silence in your throat

Drowning out the music in my ears

[Pre-Chorus]

Is it fear

Is it fate

Are we past saving

Are we lost

Are we found

Are we just waiting

Every red light feels like confession

Say it now

Say it now

[Chorus]

You’re a shadow in my backseat

Always there but you don’t speak

I can feel you

Can’t quite reach

Pull me under

Pull me under

You’re a habit I can’t break clean

In my blood and in my teeth

If you leave

I still won’t sleep

Pull me under

Pull me under

[Bridge]

Hit the gas

Let the dark rush in (oh)

If we crash

Would we call it a win

Would it hurt less knowing we were right

Or are we both just scared of the light

[Chorus]

You’re a shadow in my backseat

Always there but you don’t speak

I can feel you

Can’t quite reach

Pull me under

Pull me under

You’re a habit I can’t break clean

In my blood and in my teeth

If you leave

I still won’t sleep

Pull me under

Pull me under (yeah)

Pull me under

Pull me under
