Maybe if we push a little harder
This old car might roll again
And it's only a little bit further
Country road in the rain
But you with your mind far off say
"What a beautiful day
This afternoon is bright and sunny
Perfect for a drive in our Ferrari"
And that is the problem with us
As the raggedy mix-tapes collect dust
Why can't you see what I see
On an abandoned road with no gasoline?
The dying phone rings from your mother
It's well past our time
"We're almost there" you answer
"We're perfectly fine"
As tears stream down my face
Our favourite mix-tape plays
Nothing but an old melody
The words have lost all meaning
I'm knee-deep in mud
As you sit there daydreaming on the hood
I'm not a pessimist I see the facts
But there's no hope after the glass cracks
We stay on that dirt road
Summer in the distance
No chance of getting towed
With your insistence
That we're in love still
As I push uphill
All you feel is blissfulness
All I am is Sisyphus
