The Passenger Seat

I was the one with the hands on the wheel

Navigating every single raw deal

You were in the passenger seat just along for the ride

While I was fighting the wind and the tide

I was burning the fuel I was paying the toll

While you were just trying to take the control

The engine is smoking and the tires are thin

And I'm realizing that you're not my kin

The road is getting narrow and the bridge is ahead

Thinking bout every single word that you said

There's only room for the one who can drive

If we're ever gonna make it out of here alive

I'm pulling over I'm letting you go

You're too much weight for the seeds that I sow

The struggle is mine and the win is mine too

Win is mine too

I'm clearing the seat for the life I deserve

I'm taking the lead on the very next curve

I'm better off lonely than running with you

Running with you

You love the destination but you hate the drive

You only want to eat when I'm the one who provides

I'm looking in the mirror and I'm seeing the truth

I wasted my energy and I wasted my youth

The door is open and the lights are all red

Go find a different place to lay your head

Step out

Walk away

I've got

Nothing left to say

Keep the change

I'm pulling over I'm letting you go

You're too much weight for the seeds that I sow

The struggle is mine and the win is mine too

Win is mine too

I'm clearing the seat for the life I deserve

I'm taking the lead on the very next curve

I'm better off lonely than running with you

Running with you

Keep walking
