(Ashlee)
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I've got nothing to prove

(Erica)
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
"Cause I got time while he got freedom
"Cause when a heart breaks no
It don't break even. even, no

What am I supposed to do
When the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up but you're OK?
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
"Cause he's moved on while I'm still grieving
And When a heart breaks, no, it don't break even
even, no

(Ashlee)
I remember when we were driving,
Driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
And city lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

(Erica)
Oh you got her heart and my heart and none of the pain.
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I'm tryin' to make sense of what little remains
Oh, 'cause you left me with no love
With no love to my name

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
"Cause I got time while he got freedom
"Cause when a heart breaks no, it don't break
No it don't break, no it don't break even no

What am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you?
What am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up but you're OK?

(Ashlee & Erica)
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces

(Ashlee)
You gotta fast car
Is it fast enough so you can fly away?
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
