Verse 1: Hit someone on Riverside Road Felt the impact, saw them in the headlights go down Kept driving, already twenty minutes late Hood's caved in, windscreen cracked He said if I'm late again don't bother Verse 2: Pulled up outside his flat, engine smoking He came to the window, saw the state of it Said what the fuck did you do I said I clipped a curb, he said get away from my house Never saw him again Chorus: I'm that girl now I'm that girl now Verse 3: Parked the car three streets over Walked home, couldn't stop shaking Not from the drugs wearing off From the sound they made when they hit the ground I can still hear it Verse 4: Saw it on the news two days later Cyclist, died at the scene, asking for witnesses Dark blue Fiesta, significant damage I watched the whole thing, took notes Made sure I had my story straight Chorus: I'm that girl now And nobody knows Verse 5: My flatmate came back, asked about his car I said someone stole it, must've dumped it somewhere He filed a report, I said I'm so sorry Insurance paid him out, he bought a newer one I helped him pick the color Verse 6: Found a new dealer through someone's brother He doesn't ask questions, charges more I pay it, show up on time, keep my head down Sometimes I think he knows anyway The way he looks at me Bridge: I dream about them most nights Not their face, I never saw their face Just the sound, the thud, the scrape And I wake up and I'm still here And they're still dead And nobody's coming for me And I don't know if that's worse Than if they did Verse 7: Drive past that spot every week now There's flowers tied to the lamppost, always fresh A photo of them smiling, someone's daughter Twenty-three years old, studying engineering I memorized every detail Verse 8: Three months later, lights outside my window Red and blue cutting through the curtains I don't move, just sit here watching them reflect On the wall where her photo's been taped this whole time Watching the colors wash over her face And I think this is it This is finally it Final Chorus: I'm that girl now I'm that girl now That girl who killed someone And they finally came
