We called it a party

Even though everybody was sad

We showed up with some coffee

Started movin' at 7am

You were havin' trouble sleepin'

I was having trouble keepin' still

When we talk it's like a meeting

Full of budgets and utility bills

Drivin' on the highway home

We made a deal when we started

And we knew it would take some work

Everyday was like a party

And livin' life with no concern

I remember the feeling

Of driving to my parents' place

I lean on in to kiss you

See the gap-toothed smile on your face

Driving on the highway home

You and I always laughed at the system

I don't wanna be just another statistic we said those things

All those years ago

I read some things I shouldn't have seen

And you look like you've given up trying

You think I don't care when you walk in the room

Katie just tell me now what can I do

And Driving on a highway home

When the road starts to bend, and the signal ends, and all the static's coming through

I think about the things you said

They all go in my head, I'm alone 'cause I know it's true

In the passenger seat
