Lying in bedrooms is easy,
It's not like just five days ago
Lately you're over my body
Is that just the place that I want you to be?

Look at the pictures you've gotten
And like signals from oncoming cars
We're covered in cake from the last time
I know it sounds weird, we collect it in jars
Is that just the way that I wanna be?

Oh can't you see, it's a life I don't need,
Please don't make this thing happen to me
The way that I wanna be

Driving in style with a smile on
I wish the light could turn red on me now
The day's been so damn hard already
So buckle me in on the highway of sin
'Cause that's just the way that I wanna be

Oh can't you see, it's a life I don't need,
Please don't make this thing happen to me
The way that I wanna be
