Loss of Control While Driving
By rage_angel
As this car drifts on tonight
Through this foggy haze
On a lost highway
I don’t know where I am
Or where I’m about to go
Up ahead could be a dead end
I can no longer pretend
That I’m not scared or I’m not tired
All I wanted was to sleep
And never wake to live this life
I go numb; mind, body, and soul
It’s worse to feel the truth
Than to feel nothing at all
They’re all waiting for me to fall
I could go off this cliff
Slip over the edge
Feel as if I were flying
No one would know
To give up and just disappear
Showing no remorse or fear
But I know I’ll keep driving
Waiting for the ride to come to a stop
I’ll be trapped in this car forever
Driving into the midst of nowhere
It’s better anywhere but here
