These Roads Aren’t Safe to go Alone

I’m fighting with you

Instead of leaning in

My head’s a mess

I can’t keep this steering wheel straight

I’m forgetting that I have you in the passenger side

I just need someone to hold me

And i know you need it too.

I’m angry at myself for not reaching you sooner

I saw you on the road

You eyes half closed at the wheel

I’m sorry I wasn’t brave enough before

There’s things we can’t sweep under this red hood anymore

We’ll drive together from now on.
