lyrics

I was riding my bike down Clinton street
He turned right, didn’t see me
We collide, couldn’t breathe

I don’t want to let you make me feel small
I don’t want to give you all the control
But I don’t have anyone else I can call right now
I just got hit by a car and you were the first thing on my mind

I don’t want to give up if it’s true love
But I think that I’ve been hurt enough
Can it ever be the way that it was?
I just got hit by car and you were the first thing on my mind

I was riding my bike down Clinton street
He turned right, didn’t see me
We collide, I couldn’t breathe
Flash of my life
It must be fake
All I saw were the golden rays of a perfect Thanksgiving day

I don’t want to let you make me feel small
I don’t want to give you all the control
But I don’t have anyone else I can call right now
I just got hit by a car and you were the first thing on my mind

I don’t want to give up if it’s true love
But I think that I’ve been hurt enough
Can it ever be the way that it was?
I just got hit by car and you were the first thing on my mind

I don’t want let you make me feel small
I don’t know if we should be talking at all
It feels impossible to fill the space you left
Im sorry if I’m not making any sense
I just hit my head

I don’t want to let you make me feel small
I don’t want to give you all the control
But I don’t have anyone else I can call right now
I just got hit by a car and you were the first thing on my mind

I don’t want to give up if it’s true love
(True love!)
But I think that I’ve been hurt enough
(Enough!)
Can it ever be the way that it was?
(All I know is that I, all I know, all I know is that I loved you and that I miss you and now I’m crying in the middle of East Village)

I just got hit by car and you were the first thing on my mind
And I don’t know why this is the worst week of my fucking life and I don’t know why I feel the way I do
But at the end of my life, that almost just happened, you were there and I was there inside my mind
Inside…

I just got hit by a car
