Backseat Blues

by Soulful Ensemble   Nov 7, 2008


I'm riding in the backseat of my mind alone
With a splitting headache and my mind gone.
Oh, what a horrible thing to happen now
For you to leave when I feel so down.

But to leave in a way in which we didn't talk
Because your mind was somewhere else-- fck,
I realize I have hours to blow and waste
Until I can finally get just one more taste.

My beak is wet and my mind is spinning
With the thoughts of a lost friend, thinning.
But I won't forget him soon, I can't
I remember every thing we had
And whatever we shared wasn't bad.

Fck I miss him so much, what is going on?
My mind is spinning so fast I'm out of control.
My plane is in a crashing, burning, zone
I'm losing everything and I'm on my own.

I'm crying blood and bleeding tears
And the sadness is feeding to my fears.
I'm strong, I got to try to flee this pain
Because I got to be free from these stains.

And, "oh, what a day", says my brain
That is trying to get rid of all the pain.
Hours will be killing all the strain
So hopefully, soon, I'll be the same.

I don't want to fcking cry,
I don't want to fcking care.
I want to feel alright now,
I don't want to have to bare.

Where the fck could you have gone like that?
Why would you disappear without a track?
I see you in my mind, bleeding, on the roadside
With a lifeless body that never died inside.

Your soul was warm like sunny days
And soon I'll make peace and be okay.
But right now I'm fcking sad, see?
I lost a friend that with a blink went free.

And I'm sad, look at me,
Yes I do feel pain.
Don't forget I'm human
I can feel all strains.

I need some love zapped to my soul
Will you shoot me with yours more?
Give me all your power like coal
To energize my engine's rusty core.

I miss you both, and one of you is dead
I'm pretty sure, I feel it in my head.
I'll think of you when laying in my bed
Where you used to sit and where I bled.

I miss your animal soul and your noises
That you made all day sound like voices.
My eyes have been filled with tears all day
From the moment I knew you went away.

And here was my true love, but now she's gone
When she was here we couldn't really talk.
My mind is spinning and twisting on and on
I hope when she comes back her mind is on.

I don't want to ride the backseat to your heart
I want to be next to you, let me start the car.
Both of you are gone and didn't leave well
And inside my mind is going through hell.

I'm so alone, I can't feel a thing in me
I miss my friend and it is killing me.
But I have hope and my mind doesn't lack
Because at least one of you is coming back.
