Backseat of June

[Verse 1]
You showed up late in that stupid jacket
Stickers peeling on your beat-up case
Said
"I got lost" but your map's in your pocket
Same excuse
Different day
Same face
[Pre-Chorus]
I memorized every flaw you try to hide
Now every joke just sounds like goodbye
[Chorus]
I'm done riding in the backseat of June
While you chase every cloud like it's some cartoon
You say "forever" then you're gone by noon
I'm getting out
I'm getting out
Of the backseat of June (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Your friends all laugh like they’re on your payroll
I bite my tongue till it tastes like rust
You play the saint at the homecoming sideshow
Then blame the rain when the paint turns dust
[Pre-Chorus]
I used to think we were caught in something rare
Now I just hate that I still smell your hair
[Chorus]
I'm done riding in the backseat of June
While you chase every cloud like it's some cartoon
You say "forever" then you're gone by noon
I'm getting out
I'm getting out
Of the backseat of June (woah-oh)
[Bridge]
So take your mixtapes
Take your crooked grin
Take that promise you forgot to spin
I'll keep the hoodie and the photograph
You can keep the punchline to your half-grown laugh (hey!)
[Chorus]
I'm done riding in the backseat of June
While you chase every cloud like it's some cartoon
You say "forever" then you're gone by noon
I'm getting out
I'm getting out
Yeah
I'm burning every postcard of you
Screaming out the window like a bad tattoo
I'm not your shadow in this afternoon
I'm getting out
I'm getting out
Of the backseat of June
