Your house isn’t big but it’s bigger than mine and your dad hates my guts and your boyfriend does too. I’d come by at eight but you’re already out watching movies with him and his stupid tattoo. I rented this car just to try and impress but his jeep is so big and of course it’s black too. His dad bought it back in December I think, it was thirty-six grand, made in 2002. And just like this car I am feeling so used, forgotten and left out and kicked and abused. You think it’s okay to just call me at home, remind me I’m not out but here all alone. I hope that you’re happy. I’m sure as hell not seeing the way that he thinks that you’re bought. I wish I could tell you that he’s such a dick, but you’ll never see it. You’ll never see it. Drive all night in a car that ain’t mine. I’ll leave real soon but have it back in time with the tank topped off and the windows clean. Not a single scratch but the one in me. Alright. This car really smells like tobacco and beer but that’s just what you get for ten dollars a day. It ain’t nothing nice but it’s all I could get. Now it’s all that I have, you don’t care anyway. ‘Cuz no one’s impressed by some kid with a ride if the ride smells like garbage and heartache inside. You think that I’m stupid, not saying I’m not, but you only love him for things that he’s bought. So, tell me again just how special he is with his dad’s credit card that he mistakes for his. I wish I could tell you that he’s such a dick, but you’ll never see it, no. You’ll never see it.
