Driving
Eighty-five
I'm the only one for miles
This is my closure
This is my peace
I'm leaving my thoughts behind in this cloud of dust
There's so much to remember
Even more to forget
With each curve in the road
I slow, turn the wheel
Weaving my ride in and out of this twisting road
Not sure
Where I am going
Where I'll end up
I came from a place of security
Where the ground was flat and stable
The road was never winding
But now I'm speeding
Down this highway to nowhere in particular
I hear your voice in the back of my mind
Telling me, pleading
"slow down...please"
You don't want to see me hurt
But I need this
I need to run away
From you
From here
From what would never be between my life and yours
I accelerate
Pressing my foot firmly against the peddle
Only the heart remains
After the dust settles
Left behind
While I am miles away
