[Verse 1]
Yo (Huh)
Yo
Well, another notch in your belt
Guess you shouldn't have played the
Dodgy hand you been dealt
You got something to say (Yup)
You got words you can sell?
Write 'em down on the page and
Bring some worth to yourself

[Pre-Chorus]
If I recall correctly
When you first met me
My chest was empty
You weren't afraid to check me
But two hundred days of heavy
Expectation left me cold
I hit eject, I saw the fire go with me
As my whole head in cruise control, so

[Chorus]
Oh tell me what road we're on
Switch gears, over the years
Too many times before
Oh tell me what's goin' on (Mmm)
Old scars like broken cars that I can drive no more
[Verse 2]
Change, your locks again
Find yourself looking in the mirror wishing you had not again
Booking' in a dinner only to depart again
Turn the page and you start again
I know about myself
I'm a man of principle
Principally feeding inconsistent instances of mincing my intentions
And greetin' friends with gritted teeth and ritual

[Pre-Chorus]
And with them pretty girls
It's only ever visual
I wish that it was spiritual
And I ain't being clever but
I never stick to more than the residual
It's pitiful
Oh I've been told
My heart is cold
My body's young
But
My mind is old
Always pick the ones
Come outta broken home
But I'm a loaded gun
Stick to what you know
[Chorus]
Oh tell me what road we're on
Switch gears, over the years
Too many times before
Oh tell me what's goin' on (Mmm)
Old scars like broken cars that I can drive no more

[Outro]
Sticks and stones, break your bones
But a chest is bleeding when she's on the phone
Cuts on her thighs so her scars don't show
But I see it in her eyes when her ass is stoned
Slow it down
Keep it in your head when there friends around
Don't tell her now
Keep her in your bed when you're feeling down
