I once had a friend
They found him in a car
A hose to the window
And the motor running hot
Seems he couldn't take it
The rhetoric of life

Someone found him naked
With a note right by his side
By his side, oh by his side
He can't take it back

Neither can I
No, neither can I
Mommy and Daddy
I've borrowed the car
To sleep on the floor
I'm sorry so much
For bringing my own
Living hell to your door

Thanks for all the flowers
At the ringside seat
Thanks for nothing everyone
The prayers were too weak

This is the way
It happens all the time
Can you pay attention
To everyone that cries
Remember you can make it through
And make it new only if you try
You gotta try
'Cause you can't take it back

And neither can I
No neither can I
Mommy and Daddy
I've borrowed the car
To sleep on the floor
I'm sorry so much
For bringing my own
Living Hell to your door

But things had gotten heavy
Everything was deep
Nothing really mattered
So I just went to sleep
I just went to sleep
And I can't take it back
I won't try

I won't try, I won't try
I won't try and I won't try
Mommy and Daddy
I've borrowed the car
To sleep on the floor

Mommy and Daddy
I'm sorry to tell you life is a bore
Don't send any flowers
Don't send anymore
'Cause I can't give it back
No I won't
