- I Drove

 

I drove into the fading light
Until there were no cars in sight
Until there was no center stripe.
I drove
Eyes fixed on the road ahead
My rnind convinced of what it's fed
I could have turned around
Instead. I drove
Just put yourself into my shoes
Consider all the avenues
All the don'ts and all the what
you does
When everything she ever said
Carved lazy circles in your head
Some things are better left for dead
And nothing you can say will
change that

I drove until I met the dawn
The questions in my mind's eye formed
My sense of space and time
Were gone without me
I drove beneath the desert sun
Just contemplating why we run
The sign said US Highway 31
When time allowed and time between
Are seldom heard or rarely seen
Imagine it's a time machine or
something
Asplinter of the life we spend
Together measured end to end
Is equal to the time it takes
To rock your little world and say I
knew that

Anxiety, my shotgun friend
Would not shift or fade or bend
Steered my rnind from start to end,
I drove

I reached the point of no return,
my body ached, my spirit burned
All objections overturned,I drove
I drove until the passion died
Then I popped the clutch and let
her glide
As all that stuff unglued inside of me
you start to wonder what it is
That locks the hand into a fist
And dives into that little twist of fate
A penny earned, a penny wise
Holy Jesus, damn your eyes
When conversation slowly dies
Takes that long to realize she means it

I drove into the fading night
Until there were no stars in sight
Until there was no center stripe
Until there was no center stripe
I drove
