I wish you still loved me like you did before.
Don’t stop now, keep heading towards the door.
I wish you still loved me like you did before.
Don’t stop now, I always wanted more.

Beauty King.
Don’t change a hair for me.
Perfection is all I see.
Shining like a light beam,
you blind me,
beauty king.

Coward.
I loved you at your worst.
At mine, you cowered.
Coward.

Nevermind.
Missing you,
wishing you,
nevermind.
Missing you,
wishing you,
were mine.
Nevermind.

Paint & Pain.
Like paint, I wish we could just wash it away.
But that’s the thing about pain, it likes to stay.

Airplanes.
I remember waking up to the sound of airplanes taking off.
You would leave the window open during the evening,
the only time the Texas summer was bearable.
I remember your bed,
and your head,
and my legs.

Light Up, Lightening Bug.
I will your eyes to light up for me one more time,
but they only grow dimmer.
Hope, is but a glimmer.
I will you to love me again, but you have already let go of my hand.
You are leaving, and I am stuck, quicksand.

That’s How it Goes.
Shooting.
Soaring.
Roaring.
That’s how love goes.

Little Fighter.
If I was destroyed, but still standing
crying, but still laughing
abandoned, but somehow found left for what seemed like dead
turned upright, did that mean I was strong after all?

Lost & Found.
The road saved me, simple as that.
On many different days, driving many different ways.
I always thought I was driving to intentionally get lost,
away from my norm and into the unfamiliar,
but I was found.
I found myself on the road, somewhere between a ghost town and a sunset.
