lyrics

I did everything to catch you
Turned my arms into marble statues
Wrapped around your chest
We mined until the gold was lead

Was it the drive up 95?
Showing you how the stick shift slides
Laughing at every stall
And screaming when the words got small

It’s an adage to an ancient game
A see and saw of who takes the blame

Now I’m working too hard at the jewelry store
Soldering stones to even the score
Smiling at what I’ve attained
And crying when I miss you again

It’s an adage to an ancient dance
A Tom and Jerry trying to fake a romance

You gave no reason
Just grabbed the key and sped away

Oh it’s getting so hard to choose
And I’m chewing on all the alternate routes
Playin’ ‘em out on every page
A cat and mouse just stuck in the cage
