We ride in the car
Just like always
Your eyes scanning the road
And mine fixed on the horizon
Or on you.

And just like always
On comes our song
And just like always we sing along
You fumble over the bridge
I'm friends with every platform of it
You laugh, because the words don't matter.
Not to you, anyway.

Your lips released her name, yet again.
And for a moment, my sealed lips unlocked.
Out came lashing and biting words on that day.
And you fell silent.
When all I really wanted to know was:
Do you two have a song?
Do you stumble for those words too?
Every **** time...

Though she's beautiful
Outgoing
Abundant
Honest
I'm the one you always choose
I have so little to offer you
And she has so much.
Yet I know one day you'll listen to our song and you'll hear the words.
But by then, it'll be too late.
We'll be too late.
