Drive Us Out To Nowhere

 

And in my dreams we have time

The kind that doesn’t pass us by

We savor every second, it’s ancient between us, it lingers long after we leave and it’s fine that we believe, every microscopic lie that builds a house with no one inside. I wrap my arms around your body and plead with you to stay, never out loud but it’s in the rhythm when we sway

I’m practically family and you’re staying put, it’s all on the table, it’s said in every look

And I feel weak with fumes from the future 

I feel tortured by the past, the pages filled with words, diary entries and every old photo album 

Nothing came between us, it had all arrived long before us, I square up to take it all on and you tell me not to take so long

No sad songs and many other rules 

So many choices without the whole truth 

There’s no end in sight, and I wonder the most mediocre things, like will your sister come to know my name, but it escalates, can we stay sane? Can I stop time when we’re alone? Make believe, with no place to be, I’ll play with your hair if you drive towards the sea
