Same as Cash

[Verse 1]

You were still attached to your Civic sedan

Although the brakes always needed repair

You were headed out to buy some supplies

You could smell the threat of rain in the air

[Pre-Chorus]

I can only see the scene second-hand

I can only try to understand

How a small amount of pressure in the right place

Breaks the strongest link in the chain

[Chorus]

In your car with your head in your hands

At the far end of the Walmart parking lot

Trying not to buckle under the strain

[Verse 2]

Every single night after prime timе

Loud enough to hear in your sleep

The salеsman from the lot half a mile from here

Yelling down the hood of his Jeep

[Pre-Chorus]

"I'll take anything that the others won't

I can see the value where others don't!"

Just a small amount of pressure in the right place

Two fingers to the temporal vein

[Chorus]

In your car with your head in your hands

At the far end of the Walmart parking lot

Trying not to buckle under the strain

[Bridge]

Striking a bargain with the imp in your brain

Prepared to take another knock for the short game

But you can ask any veteran running back

Eventually your joints complain

[Verse 3]

You were headed home at 80 miles an hour

With your fingers sweating under your gloves

Everyone deserves a little light in their hair

Everybody needs to love and be loved

[Pre-Chorus]

That's what all the people say anyway

I can save my thoughts for another day

Maybe a small amount of pressure in the right place

Anything to help with the pain

[Chorus]

In your car with your head in your hands

At the far end of the Walmart parking lot

Trying not to buckle under the strain
