• the traffic of the day starts to melt into the night
    and i'm the only one on this stretch of road tonight
    my eyes glow pale and white and block my line of sight,
    fully draped with tears that tell of my defeat
    looking to the left and veering towards the right
    until the sudden crash of water darkens all the light
    and the cab it slowly fills and the air it disappears
    and these lungs fill up until my tears have disappeared
    the sun is gone and the moon fills the sky
    sitting still with passionate open arms
    weeping for me from the empty night
    little piece of twilight come crashing down
    so when i alienated myself from everyone who cared
    you stood with me like a soldier ready to fight
    and in one instance without a four letter word comes a crashing blow
    that empties the breath from my chest
    i saw you shut the light off
    i can wait out here all night
