In the Backseat

I like the peace in the backseat,

I don't have to drive,

I don't have to speak,

I can watch the countryside,

and I can fall asleep.



My family tree's losing all it's leaves,

crashing towards the driver's seat,

the lightening bolt made enough heat

to melt the street beneath your feet.



Alice died in the night,

I've been learning to drive my whole life,

I've been learning.



I like the peace in the backseat,

I don't have to drive,

I don't have to speak,

I can watch the countryside...

Alice died in the night.



I've been learning to drive.

My whole life, I've been learning.

Oh, Nora!
