Lower Dens - I Drive Lyrics

Could have had me
But you wanted a daughter
Could've had me
But you wanted the same old song

Why can't we be with the ones we were made to love?
I live as instructed
No way through
No place in me for you
I drive at night

We could've been family
(When you knew all along you had to let this go)
But you f*cked up
(And you knew all along our bond was losing hope)
Could've survived
(Can we survive, can we survive?)
But you want it all

I wonder why, do I have to make a sacrifice?
I hear you cry in the middle of the dead of night
I wonder why, do I have to make a sacrifice?
I hear you cry in the middle of the dead of night

Why can't we be with the ones we were made to love?
We live as instructed

Why can't we be with the ones we were made to love?
We live as instructed
I'm not the one who let you down
Talk is cheap and everyone's police
I drive at night

Why can't we be with the ones were made to love?
Live as instructed
I'm not the one who let you down
We had streets
But now there's just police

I drive at night
