Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bad habits hardwired
Burning rubber on two un-patchable tires
This coffee's cold now
Like the shoulder you're giving me
Shitty advice, now we're stuck at the light
Nowhere close to where we wanna be
[PreChorus]
I should've known better than to let you have have control
Kept it between the lines and now I'm swerving off the road
[Chorus]
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
Yeah, I crashed the car, but you're the one to blame
[Verse 2]
Dead silent, dark night
Don't recognize you when you're rolling your eyes
And I wanna get out
But I think I'm in too deep
Down in this ditch, you just dig and you dig
'Til I'm crushed under your apathy
[PreChorus]
I should've known better than to let you have have my heart
Head-on collision, this one's gonna leave a mark
[Chorus]
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
Yeah, I crashed the car, but you're the one to blame
You're the one to blame
The one to blame
[Bridge]
Melodramatic, traffic, gaslit
When will we let it go?
[Chorus]
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
You were a backseat driver, babe
Yeah, I crashed the car, but you're the one (You were a backseat driver, babe)
Yeah, I crashed the car, but you're the one (You were a backseat driver, babe)
Yeah, I crashed the car, but you're the one to blame (You were a backseat driver, babe)
