Caffeine dreams of nicotine screams
spilling into your ears.
Eyes on the road, while you talked in code
over the radio.
It was night at the start of the fight
and we didn't win,
under the shots sped our thoughts
into the dawn.
And we missed when we kissed
at sunrise.
Blazing trails, too many fails.
And you're gone.
Checking the road where the rage flowed
into our love.
No one believed we'd survive the speed
of reality.
So we screamed while we dreamed
under the bridge.
Now all the fear since your not here,
bleeds in my ears
I wasn't prepared to be the one spared,
now I'm alone.
