When you left me by myself
I wrote a check from someone else
The beggars told me it was hard
So I tried to buy a car
Maybe I can wake up for a little
Try to make my way up to the middle

Racing down the boulevard
It didn't get me very far
Smoked a pack to take a break
Took a Norco by mistake
Do exactly as I say
Do exactly as I do
Did exactly what I want
Here's a grift from me to you

So I put my foot in front of the other
Worse ways to spend time while you suffer
So I put my foot in front of the other
Sure seemed to work good for your mother

When you wake up by yourself
Does it make it hard to tell?
The makeup slowly rubbing off
In the mirror of the car
Maybe we could pull off for a minute
Take a second for all of it to set in

Why is everything so hard
We're never giving back the car
We'll do anything it takes
Someone disconnect the brakes
Do exactly as I say
Do exactly as I do
Do exactly what I want
I didn't lift it, it was you

So I put my foot in front of the other
Worse ways to spend time while you suffer
So I put my foot in front of the other
Sure seemed to work good for your mother
So I put my foot in front of the other
Worse ways to spend time while you suffer
