lyrics

i'll take the rocks out of my head
and you can sell them on the internet
to a paving company who
will grind my brains into cement

when i'm the gravel we can travel and unravel the threads that bind us to our senses
i'll pave the way so we can make our mental getaway
i'll be your highway you can drive all over me

i don't know how i could get any lower but!
i can try my best for you cause
if i can't be a good friend, maybe i can be good pavement
baby i'll lead you into the light

what can i do for you?
i want to make you feel important
i'll give it up for you cause
after all you've been so supportive

like, i get that trying to get affection from me is like trying to draw blood from the concrete
i'll prove that i can change, i'll rearrange my particles
transform my heart into a tunnel over you

i don't know how i could get any lower but
i can try my best for you cause
if i can't be a good friend, maybe i can be good pavement
i can be your highway you can walk all over me
