Backseat Confessions

[Verse 1]
Half tank
Phone face-down in the cup holder
Your laugh
Fills the gaps in the dashboard glow
You say
"Tell me something you ain't told her"
I choke
On a truth I kinda wish you’d never know

[Chorus]
Backseat confessions
Spilling in the dark like secrets on the floor
Wrong time
Right person
I’m saying way too much
But I still want more
Every word I shouldn’t say
Hanging heavy in the space between your breaths
Backseat confessions
Driving circles
Getting closer to a mess

[Verse 2]
You trace
Little lines on the fogged window
One heart
Then you drag your finger through the middle slow
You ask
"Are we really gonna cross this line?"
I laugh
But my hands are shaking on the wheel this time

[Chorus]
Backseat confessions
Spilling in the dark like secrets on the floor
Wrong time
Right person
I’m saying way too much
But I still want more
Every word I shouldn’t say
Hanging heavy in the space between your breaths
Backseat confessions
Driving circles
Getting closer to a mess

[Bridge]
Pull over by the old arcade
Hazards blinking like they know our names (oh)
You lean in
I pull away
Then I crash straight into everything I’m scared to say
"If I met you first
Would it feel this cursed?"
You just smile like you already rehearsed

[Chorus]
Backseat confessions
Spilling in the dark like secrets on the floor
Wrong time
Right person
I’m saying way too much
But I still want more
Every word I shouldn’t say
Tastes like freedom and a slow regretful breath
Backseat confessions
Killing something just to see what’s living left
