you’re always breaking shit when i’m looking the other way. it’s already tomorrow but it feels like yesterday. i don’t wanna go back to bed even though i should. down the street it’s caddy corner to her old place. i’m sad it’s over but i really need a break. i’ve smiled at you like six times today but it’s all good. if i go home it’s real. don’t cry i’ll deal. but if it was up to me you know i would.
i like driving all the time and all this week it’s like i’ve never felt more alive in a parking lot. i don’t need to feel everything i did. i’ll wear a hearing aid and you’ll get glasses for your eyes. the sun’s coming down and the floor’s gonna cave in right under my legs. you’ll be feeling it tomorrow but now i’m glad to be. by spring you’ll see that when it’s up to me you know i will
if i go home it’s real. don’t cry i’ll deal. i’ll fix the van i’m free. pick you up come three.
drive to another state and never leave.
