You've been driving for a while
Bet you didn't see the new stop
Don't pull over to the side

Ever cried over yesterday
Life's such a fast car baby drive it
Leave some dust and get away

Hold on you know
You gotta fight the feeling
Shut your eyes don't let go
And now that you're here

You could be the president
Of your own life's accidents
These are things that you should know by now
You're not sixteen anymore
So what you're waiting for
These are things that you should know by now

And the walls are closing in
When your neighbors turn the news up
Feeling small, where to begin

You gotta get on and get out
Like you don't have to part an ocean
Take a drive into the night

I know you know
It's just a small explosion
Shut your eyes don't let go
And now that you're here

You could be the president
Of your own life's accidents
These are things that you should know by now
You're not sixteen anymore
So what you're waiting for
These are things that you should know by now

And once that you know what it's all about
It's almost too late to live without
But you never really had a doubt
Did you?

You could be the president
of your own life's accidents
These are things that you should know by now
You're not sixteen anymore
So what you're waiting for
These are things that you should know by now
