Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Scared of everything Everything's on blast Never travel light I carry the past In an armored car That's my skeleton Worship one idea Like a superfan In a gallery With a slanted view There's a book signing Dystopian haikus As they're read out loud Under Edison lights Makes me scratch my head And think of simpler times [Chorus 1] Borrowed a car for the day We drove it out to The Rockaways And you went swimming I watched you swimming [Verse 2] I'm made of money now There's nothing I want Except expensive wine To watch the rocket launch We'll climb up on the roof And sit in plastic chairs Watch it accelerate Until it disappears Just like your goodbye voice Trailing off down the hall I love you, baby I'll be back in one hour You'll try and smile then Sometimes it doesn't stick I'll help you tune it out I'll help you reminisce [Chorus 2] Borrowed a car for the day Filled it up with some friends I'd made And they went dancing I watched them dancing [Bridge] Don't feel badly I'm barely angry It's not too much to contain Always knew that It'd probably happen We'd put these memories to shame [Chorus 3] Borrowed a car for the day Gassed it up for our getaway Said you'd be waiting I left you waiting
