I am your cherry at the end of the day
Take the weight that you carry and put it all away
But it's true what they say
Bend enough you might break
No people don't change

And you give me who you are but not who you've been
And all of those white picket fences were built to protect you from me
Why can't you see?

I'll never meet your parents
I'll never drink their wine
They'll never hang up a frame with our picture inside
We'll never walk down the aisle
And maybe that's alright
So I'll keep the car running, baby
Meet me outside

Sometimes you fight the shape your words make
When you say that you're fine but you leave too much space
'Cause it's true what they say
You can run but you can't hide
I know they taught you not to lie

And you give me who you are but not who you've been
And all of those white picket fences were built to protect you from me
Why can't you see?

I'll never meet your parents
I'll never drink their wine
They'll never hang up a frame with our picture inside
We'll never walk down the aisle
And maybe that's alright
So I'll keep the car running, baby
Meet me outside

Oh (oh)
Oh (oh)
Oh (oh)
Oh (oh)
Ooh

I'll never meet your parents
I wouldn't waste their time
No, I'll keep the car running, baby
Meet me outside
