Allison Ponthier – Autopilot Lyrics

 

Autopilot Lyrics by Allison Ponthier

 

Shaking awake from my nightly fever
I shouldn’t have watched Christine alone
If my stepmom got me in that old beater
Then I would have stayed sixteen years old
And I can’t drive it if I can’t focus
And I can’t grow up if I’m not ready to die

Unless I wake up in 2100 on autopilot
I can’t stay between the lines
But not for lack of trying
I’m just stuck on autopilot
Autopilot

I’ve never been a nightly reader
Studying late for a test the next day
I’m old enough to be their teacher
So why am I worried to make mistakes?
And I’m not passing if I can’t focus
And I can’t grow up if I’m not ready to die

Unless I wake up in 2100 on autopilot
I can’t stay between the lines
But not for lack of trying
I’m just stuck on autopilot
Autopilot
Autopilot
Autopilot

And I can’t drive it if I can’t focus
And I can’t grow up if I’m not ready to die
Unless I wake up in 2100 on autopilot
I can’t stay between the lines
But not for lack of trying
I’m just stuck on autopilot
Autopilot

Autopilot
Autopilot
Autopilot
Autopilot
