CAR SEAT HEADREST
"Deadlines (Thoughtful)"

I am not awake
I am not asleep
I am not so shallow
I am not that deep
Do you wanna dance?
Someone shut the door
On the losing side
Of some sort of war

He said, "I'd like to do this for a living
But I don't know how"
Wild, uncommercial
Sleeping on a leash
There was a predestined set of symbols ticking into place
A prom queen crowned in the background
Stepping out of frame
A pair of hands took me to your face
Your eyes held me

[Chorus:]
Oh, compassion
(Can't get connected)
It's transforming me into
(Can't get connected)
(Can't stay connected)
Oh, compassion
(Can't get connected)
It's transforming me into
(Can't get connected)
(Can't get connected)

[Bridge:]
No more reflection
Swearin' all I see is you
(Can't get connected)
(Can't stay connected)

[Outro:]
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
(Can't get connected)
(Can't get connected)
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
I think I'm onto something
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Shut up
Shut the fu-
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Shut, shut up
Hey
