Drinking the same cheap beer since I was sixteen Still listening to T.Rex, Stooges and the Stones It don’t seem like there’s much of a future I’m sick with the no future blues Taking pills with a girl who studied astronomy Sneaking off to talk about post-pop and The Cars When I’m with you The future don’t seem so blue When I’ve got you Hiding out in the back seat of your friends car We didn’t want our friends asking much about that We were just singing Teenage Kicks by the Undertones It don’t seem like there’s much of a future Baby we’re sick with the no future blues

Baby, say you wanna make me crazy I’d lose my mind for you, I’d lose my mind for you Ain’t it funny? How we say those things But baby you don’t even realise I can’t pretend I’m doing fine with losing love and bleeding lies Baby, can you read my mind? Can you see through this hopeless disguise? I can pretend I’m doing fine with bleeding love and losing lies Can you free me from my mind? Baby, say you’re crazy too I think you’ve lost your mind
3.
This is the part everyone goes through Do they love me or do they not? I’m too scared to ask you the question Will I get the answer that I want? If you only knew the tears I cried for you If you only knew the sleep I lost If you only knew how much I love(d) you If you only knew I gave you the chances to let me know Do you love me or do you not? but sometimes you get too tired of fighting so you give up before it breaks your heart It’s been weighing on my mind such a long, long time You don’t even know half of it Wondering if I should say goodbye to you? This is the part everyone goes through Looks like you love me not I didn’t need to ask to get my answer but baby you still broke my heart If you only knew how bad it hurts If you only knew your words make it worse If you only knew how much I’ll miss you If you only knew

You took the back seat because you wanted to be with your friends I could see that it was over but i was happy to pretend Cause I was happy in the comfort of your familiar bones I could never feel at home in the company of my own I don’t want to let this go I’m not waiting for tomorrow I’m just wishing it was still yesterday Now this late night drive seems a different kind for you and I The songs on the radio can’t ease my mind It’s a shame if this is how our story ends, with you, stuck in the back seat You took the back seat because you knew it was over but i was happy to pretend I don’t want to let you go I know you’re waiting for tomorrow I’m just wishing it was still yesterday
