*~*~*~*~

Cutting through the darkest night

In my two headlights

I'm trying to keep it clear

But I'm losing it here

To the twilight

There's a dead end to my left

There's a burning bush to my right

You aren't in sight

You aren't in sight

*





The motorcycle raced through the streets. The rider had been riding all through the night, and had just entered the city. Streaks of pink, yellow and crimson painted the pre-dawn sky, heralding the sunrise. The city was quiet. But the rider wasn't at rest. His thoughts were loud.very loud.

*

Do you need me

Like I need you?

*

A new morning.

A new city.

Someone else to check up on

Something else to preoccupy me

But come tomorrow, I'll run from here like I ran away from Seatle.

*

Mothers on a stoop

Boys in souped-up coupes

On this hot summer night

Between fight and flight

Is the blind man's sight

And the choice that's right

*

The eternal question:

Why do I keep running?

*

Feels like I'm gonna drown

In this strange town

I feel broken down

I feel broken down

*

Maybe I feel if I stop, I won't know where I'm going.

Maybe if I stop, I'll have to face the fact that someone is waiting for me in Seatle. Someone that will make me forget about Manticore.

Someone who will teach me about myself.

Someone who can see past this mask I hide behind.

Someone who knows me.

*

Do you need me like I need you to?

Do you want me like I want you?

Or are you passing me by?

Or am I standing still?

*

She has a name.

But I'm not prepared to say it yet.

*

Sweet sorrow is the call tomorrow

Sweet sorrow is the call tomorrow

*

After all, love is just a sentimental lie right?

So why do I feel like I'm standing still?

*

Or am I standing still?

Beneath the darkened sky

Or am I standing still?

With the scenery flying by

Or am I standing still?

Out of the corner of my eye

Was that you passing me by?
