the illusion destroyed
broken bones
on the highway
outlined in sidewalk chalk
we talk but tuck
our heads
into our turtle shells
life has been hell
its also been heaven as well
I’m forgetting to breath
eat and sleep
hours pass by so fast
I don’t even have a chance
to catch up
out of gas
the one legged man
running a race
at a losers pace
and its ok
or I keep telling myself that
each day
is a new way
to make more
and if you go searching
what you seek
you wont find anything there
but if you live
you never know what to expect
im a car wreck
and then the ambulance
im the last dance
at the first communion
nothing is common
because its all strange
every day
every page
written deeper
without meaning
and I forget things
and look back
and get to know who I was
when I was
maybe Im not there now
but one day
Im going to make you
all proud of me
then you will see
what a road to ruin
I can make
