"Parking Lot" lyrics - SARA BAREILLES

[Intro:]
Ooh-oh, Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh, Ooh-oh

It's a feeling
My hands and feet held to the floor
Like I'm kneeling
Prostrate to what fate sent through
Holding down the only solid ground I can find
'Cause I don't wanna try the other kind
I don't have it yet, a good sense of
Knowing when what I do should be immediate
But all this waiting for a sign from the other side
For fuck's sake, this is just a timeline
Just a timeline

Sara, stop it
Pick at your paralysis
And unlock it
And flex the fear 'til it builds you a rocket and rise
And if you fall at least you end up between
Where you will be and where you will have been
Yeah

[Chorus:]
I can't keep paying for the same spot in a parking lot
(Can't stay here, no, not anymore)
(Can't stay here, no, not anymore)
Oh, I just keep paying for the same spot in a parking lot
(Can't stay here, no, not anymore)
(Can't stay here, no)
Not anymore
(Ooh-oh, Ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, Ooh-oh)

Wish I was lying
My worry circles my brain
Like it's dying
And that redhead vulture is well-fed
But what that mutiny used to be is no use to me now
Tell me how it all turns out
'Cause I'm not sticking around

[Chorus:]
I can't keep paying for the same spot in a parking lot
(Can't stay here, no, not anymore)
(Can't stay here, no, not anymore)
Oh, I just keep paying for the same spot in a parking lot
(Can't stay here, no, not anymore)
(Can't stay here, no)
Not anymore
I can't breathe in a parking lot (ooh-oh, ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, Ooh-oh)

[Bridge:]
Give me divine dissatisfaction
Give me a heart-unsettled soul
Give me emotion into action
'Cause I can't take this anymore

[Outro:]
I can't breathe in a parking lot (ooh-oh, ooh-oh)
Not anymore
I can't breathe in a parking lot (ooh-oh, ooh-oh)
