Words and music by Sean Burke, with creative input by Josh Rogosin

lyrics

December 19th, 2016: There’s one less longing heart on the interstate tonight. There’s an empty bench that will not come to life again. My crooked smile and a little piece of you left on the dashboard will give everyone a clue, but they’ll never know the chemicals or the truth. It’s called the backseat serenade: the tune of the bad boys who’ve got it made. Who could have ever thought I’d be among them? I thought love songs couldn’t lie. But I suppose honest words in pillow talk are in short supply. Perhaps a natural reaction of a caffeinated state. A dosage of dopamine that I could not…thought I could find it when we searched in empty parking lots - that was not the case, and I only found an onslaught of fears. But I fell in love with the way you fall from grace. The way that radiant smile crept across your face, and the way you finally put me in my place. Still plays on the backseat serenade. I’d come onto you through the spades, but I guess that goodnight kiss aftertaste didn’t last long enough (but I swear I tried to savor it) as every nerve ending was crushed. You’re my chemical affection, baby that is true but without chemistry, what becomes of two? You’re my cerebral affliction and I could never outsmart you. And now you’re stuck in my head like a rainbow in a zoo. Now a hundred miles between us and a lateral accord: you keep the faith, I’ll keep the distance and never assess what for. Abandoned. Bedridden. Declaring good riddance.
