Jon Foreman - Company Car lyrics

Mike was right when he said I'd put up A fight to be someone A fight to be me But see now I'm down Under the pavement Of capital hills and lowercase people As time rolls by my dreams have become That which is attainable Not what I'm looking for I've got the company car I'm the one swinging at two below par Yeah, I've become one with the ones That I've never believed in But I've got the company car Hey, I'm the king of things I've always despised I'm the ginger-bread man Who got eaten alive I'm half-baked, I'm fake But see I got hotels on Park Place and Boardwalk And two hundred bucks I pa** "Go" but, oh, Life's taken it's toll Have I won Monopoly to forfeit my soul? But see I've got the company car I'm the one swinging at two below par Yeah, I've become one with the ones That I've never believed in But I've got the company car, yeah All the kings horses At the foot of the wall They're taking pictures of The man who's lost all of his Masks of pretension He's got two faces left His is the one that he hides On the left Behind that smile Hiding tears and fear That burns like an engine It drives him away From the ones that he loves Mike was right Hey, Mike We're one and the same We're the faceless combatants In the loneliest game Ah, but say I'll wave as I'm driving by With that smirk in my eye Yelling "Hey! I'm something man, check me out!" I've got the company car I'm the one swinging at two below par Yeah, I've become one with the ones That I've never believed in But I've got the company car (I've got the company car) Yeah, check me out I've got the company car (I've got the company car) Yeah, check me out I've got the company car (I've got the company car) Yeah
