It's cold in the back of the pickup truck
And I told myself I don't give a fuck
About anything you said
And yet it's all that I've got in my head
You've got the kind of values
Where I blink and I miss it
I guess I take the view
If you're complacent you're complicit
And I'm disappointed that you only ever got this far
You're just a bad habit baby that I can't break
I'll roll you up and smoke you all the way down
Till the heat from you burns my lips
Corners of my mouth and my fingertips
I want to say I love you but I need to hear it first
I'm hoping that you give a shit but I'm fearing the worst
Tell me how does it end, tell me how does it end
Do you think it's going well?
You're all grown up you've had time to reflect and
We've all shown up and learnt what to expect
And you don't even believe us when we tell you what happened to us
I think you think I love you
And you don't know that I'm scared and
I wish that I could trust you
But I don't know if you're there for me
How could you be when you won't even see how it is?
Cause you're a bad habit baby that I can't break
I'll roll you up and smoke you all the way down
Till the heat from you burns my lips
Corners of my mouth and my fingertips
I need to say I want you but I'd love to hear it first
I'm hoping that you give a shit but I'm fearing the worst
Tell me how does it end, tell me how does it end
Do you see this going well?
I love you and I hate you and I wish I'd never met you
You're too smart to be this stupid I don't even want to get you
I'm annoyed that if I did there'd be a void where your awareness should be
It's cold in the back of the pick up truck
I'm lonely and I'm angry cause I do give a fuck
About everything you said
In fact it's all that I've got in my head
Cause you're a bad habit baby that I can't break
I'll roll you up and smoke you all the way down
Till the heat from you burns my lips
Corners of my mouth and my fingertips
I need to say I love you but I want to hear it first
I'm hoping that you give a shit but I'm fearing the worst
Tell me how does it end, tell me how does it end
I don't see this going well
