Dm   F/A       A#
You wanted to know just
              Dm
what makes me tick
  F/A           A#
I guess I could say that
    Dm       F/A
You and your bullshit
    A#
Are pushing me
             Dm
towards an explosion
  F/A               A#
I guess you're what drives me

Chorus:
Gm             Dm
I wish I could ride you
C         Gm            A#
Drive you too fast into a sharp curve
           Gm                     Dm
Break your neck like you broke my will
    Gm                      A#
The guardrail will take you home

I guess you get caught up
In the day-to-day
Drama of being you
To notice me
And what's become of my eyes
The vessels are an angry red
Just like the blood from my lips,
as I chew on them

Chorus

A#
I keep your picture as a reminder
Gm
of what I wish I wasnt
C
It's like a fun house mirror
Dm
version of myself through those
A#                A
fucked up eyes of yours

Chorus:
I wish I could ride you
Drive you too fast into a sharp curve
Break your neck like you broke my will
The guardrail
The guardrail
The guardrail
Will take you home
