I drive

its not literally about driving but about moving on after a break up.

Red spots , And fever shots
I feel contagious
We run to find someone
Somewhere to feel safe
And you stand, Alone again
You try to hide it
You cry
And I drive
Its all in your head
Just move on

Wild fires and radio towers
We've lost connection
Burning bridges and power lines
Winds blow in all directions
Your tears cant stop this now
It only burns greater
And it burns
From your lips you breathed
With just a breeze
Burning all to the ground
Leaving no past
Just memories


And you cry
As I drive
And you lay in fear
Not knowing why
As I drive
Alone again ,Its all in your head
Just move on



New habits occur in time
Just read through all the signs
Damn your directions
I want to find my way
I will be fine
And where's mine?
And where's mine?
You led me away
And now im alone again
Its all in my head
And its time
And its time
To move on



It's live, you have one shot
Don't miss your chances
Fast forward, and we cant stop
Just press play
You move on way to fast
Someone hit pause, again
This tape is almost out
There is no re-run

And you cry
As you lay in fear
Not knowing why
And how?
As I drive, far away from here
Alone again ,Its all in our heads
Just move on

I like this. It's well, straight up some would say.
Many people like to pause and reflect for that possibility of one more time or to at least to believe it was real.
As a person who has found myself in pause a few times, I think men should stop driving so much lol.
Very good piece

I like it!

Wow! great piece with a great metaphor... for this piece, it's a lot less about the rhyme and actual "poetic style" versus the general meaning. I love it! The only thing is in the second-to-last stanza, "you move on way to fast" should change to "you move on way *too* fast"

Great work.

Indeed, driving is all about moving on unless otherwise people drive backwards. Keep writing.

This is much more than my review below.It makes me think of a song.
"It's live, you have one shot
Don't miss your chances
Fast forward, and we cant stop
Just press play
You move on way to fast
Someone hit pause, again
This tape is almost out
There is no re-run"

Wonderful verse.
