*ALONG FOR THE RIDE* *[Verse 1]* I put my faith in every word you said Believed the future painted in your eyes Held on tight when the nights got heavy Trusted you'd be there when the light would rise [Chorus] I was along for the ride Holding on while you steered the way Thought we were heading somewhere real I was along for the ride Blinded by the faith I gave Never saw the exit coming near *[Verse 2]* I handed over every piece of me Prayed this love was solid, built to stay Counted every promise like a prayer Thought we'd make it through the darker days [Chorus] I was along for the ride Holding on while you steered the way Thought we were heading somewhere real I was along for the ride Blinded by the faith I gave Never saw the exit coming near *[Verse 3]* You took the trust I freely gave Spent it like it cost you nothing Used my hope to fill the empty spaces Left me standing when the thrill wore thin [Bridge] Now the road looks different in the rearview All those miles I thought we shared I was just the passenger you needed Till the destination didn't care *[Final Chorus - twisted]* I was _just_ along for the ride Nothing more than a temporary seat You never meant to take me home I was just along for the ride Faith turned into the biggest lie And now I'm walking back alone I was just along for the ride...
