My parents made me
In 1980
And I was born in the hot, hot summer
I loved my parents
My parents loved me
But they just couldn't love each other
Broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
Broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
I had a puppy
I named her Odie
But we had to put her down last summer
She was my best friend
When I moved to Grand Ledge
But she had a stroke and couldn't even walk
But broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
Broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
I had a girlfriend
A pretty brown haired girlfriend
But something awful happened to us one summer
We both got real sad
And by the spring time
We forgot how to love each other
Broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
Broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
Theres no moral to the story
Its just my story and I hope I haven't wasted too much of your time
Its just a song I sing
Cause song singing makes me happy
I wish that were true
I wish everyone were happy
But broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
Broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look

I'll find a way to your house
It's dark and it's raining, it's nice out
I'll bite my tongue when your friend's around
We'll meet at a mall in a new town
I can't believe that it's dark out
It's 6:45 and my headlights
Are telling me I have to go now
My car likes to slide when it's wet and
My hands are still cramping
Less than they were when around you
I tense all my muscles in your view
Spend all my time trying soda
To tell myself I'm just as new to you
Anxiety likes to control us
I comfort the fact that you're still you
I am afraid that I know you
I'm just afraid that I know you
I'm just afraid that I know you so well
You'll find a place with a backyard
A place that you can still run to
Drinking a lot in the morning
Knowing that it's gonna kill you
I'll find a way to go home now
Under a bridge self-loathing
You can't survive without caffeine
Your friends aren't enough to be happy, I swear
Your friends aren't enough to be happy, I swear

I woke up this morning wanting to cry
And when I called her I realised why
Although she was honest, she spoke with a cold tongue
I broke down in the courtyard when it came to light
She broke every promise in the space of one night
She made me hate this city, immediately
I thought she was something else
But as it turns out she was just someone else
There were four questions I wanted to ask
Do you love him yet? Do you think it will last?
Were you wearing the pants I bought you?
Do you ever think he thought you resembled me in some way?
A boy left to break
We spent two years together
I thought I made her better
All my best friends told me I should forget her
But I never could, I thought that I should
I need to stop thinking of the things I'll never do again
And just be glad I did them, and I'm so glad I did them
First love does not mean best love
And best friends may not mean best friends forever
But they both mean at some point, somewhere, someone did care
And their memories still there
I know she was special, I know she was good
I know she wasn't flawless but I know I was loved
I know she had passion, I know she was kind
So why should an ending alter my state of mind
Although I find it hard to relive her
I know that I would always forgive her
She says no regrets, and I say don't forget

Too hard on the brakes again
What if these brakes just give in?
What if they don't get out of the way?
What if there's someone overtaking?
I'm going out for a little drive
And it could be the last time you see me alive
There could be an idiot on the road
The only kick in life is pumping his steel
Wrap me up in the back of the trunk
Packed with foam and blind drunk
They won't ever take me alive
'Cause they all drive
Don't die on the motorway
The moon would freeze, the plants would die
I couldn't cope if you crashed today
All the things I forgot to say
I'm going out for a little drive
And it could be the last time you see me alive
What if there's an idiot on the road?
The only kick in life is pumping his steel
Wrap me up in the back of the trunk
Packed with foam and blind drunk
They won't ever take me alive
'Cause they all drive
Killer cars
Wrap me up in the back of the trunk
Packed with foam and blind drunk
No, they won't ever take me alive
'Cause they all drive
Killer cars
