brand new car

[Intro]

Alright, are you ready?

One, two—

[Verse 1]

You look like someone else

But nothing's changed

You still feel like home

But you don't look that way

You're like a brand new car

With brand new paint

I'm like the smell of smoke

That drives you away

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for it

I can't hate you for it

I've been preppin' just to watch you leave

I've been changin' for ya

You can't blame me for it

If you're gonna leave, just leave me

[Verse 2]

I know you're movin' on

And I'm stuck runnin' in place

I wanna picture us

But you're just slippin' out of the frame

You're likе a brand new car

And I'm chippin' at your paint

I'm like the smеll of smoke

Have I left you stained?

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for it

I can't hate you for it

I've been preppin' just to watch you leave

I've been changin' for ya

You can't blame me for it

If you're gonna leave, just leave me

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Why don't you just tell me

If you're finally ready?

Is that why you don't cry at all?

Baby, you've been distant

Maybe it's the distance

Or am I the one that's doing this wrong?

You ain't gotta tell me

I know that you're ready

That's why you don't cry at all

I saw it from a distance

Impossible to miss it

I'm staring in the face of what went wrong

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for it

I can't hate you for it

I've been preppin' just to watch you leave

I've been changin' for ya

You can't blame me for it

If you're gonna leave, just leave me
