Fell asleep on the asphalt outside of the elephant state
Made quite the commitment down past William's grave
In the cemetery light
I'd take a few years if I thought it would end fine
Keep losing my friends to the parts on the inside that I can't stand
And hoping my smile doesn't shake
So I'll hang back, watch the crows from the door
'Cause I need a break
Baby, can you drive me home?
Baby, can you drive me home?
I've seen too much of the pavement
Baby, can you drive me home?
Talked too long before I outed myself
In a televised moment of doubt
Faded along with the highlights of the elephant's day
In a few years if everything's still fine
I'll open this room and parade in with hindsight
At the end of a terrible half-life we'll make space
Then maybe my mind won't light up anymore
And I'll need a drink
Baby, can you drive me home?
Baby, can you drive me home?
I've seen too much of the pavement
Baby, can you drive me home?
Hold my head under the waves
Take my writing off the page
The mess that I made you?
Well here we are and
Suddenly it's all made up of different stuff
Take my writing off the page (the mess that I made you?)
Drive me home
I fell asleep on the asphalt outside of the elephant state
Made quite the commitment but now I don't know what to think
Yeah baby, can you drive me home?
Baby, can you drive me home?
I've seen too much of the pavement
Baby, can you drive me home?
