i wonder how she knows
i almost didnt make it all of the way home last night
did she watch me hold the wheel too tightly
or maybe i resemble the way that shes looking
to find herself a new life

and now i guess i made you go the other way, without you
and i wish you would say youll stay a little bit longer with me
and i know that you wont

so there has got to be a glitch somewhere
with my name written all over it
and she knows, i spent too much time in my room
cant find a way to get my head through my chest
into my own heart

and now i guess i made you go the other way, without you
and i wish you would say youll stay a little bit longer with me
and i know that you wont

so this is my, its my real life
and im trying to pass it off on you
its mine, its my real life
and im trying to pass it off on you

so this is my, this is my real life
and im trying to pass it off on you
i stay here starry eyed
notice that this city line
something looks different tonight
you look different tonight

so i know you better find another way
to get rid of me
because im not going down so easily
so i know you better find another way
to get rid of me
because im not going down

so this is my, this is my real life
and im trying to pass it off on you
i stay here starry eyed
notice that this city line
something looks different tonight
you look different tonight
