Rememberings

Remember when the car sped off our lane?

Our tires slipped on a road doused with rain, 
And in a little town on the coast of Maine 
The world conspired to empty your veins

Sirens wailed and cold light flashed in the night 
And pain numbed my head, blurred my failing sight 
Yet I called on all I knew that was right 
And asked you to try, and asked you to fight

4.

To fail in this game

Is to find myself without

Meaning, comfort, home

3.

My soul is aching

You’ve taken my heart’s beating

I’ve been left behind

2.

So much is dead, gone

When life is lived without you

Please don’t run away

1.

Melt inhibitions

The whole world is our backyard

Go find your alive
