Simple Confusion

I wrote this for you. You know who you are. Sorry things are such a confused mess! But for you and you alone, I wrote this. Hope you understand. Life isn't always simple, yet it's simply confusing where matters of the heart are concerned. Here's to better days....

T-


Boy don't you know I gotta run?
Speed away from here
Get you out of my bones
And leave this mess behind
Run away from pain
Just to write those wistful-
Mournful
Romantic poems
Things gone awry
Things not meant to be
So wrong
And I don't know why it felt so good and right
But I gotta run now
Be on my lonely way
From zero back to square one it seems
I sit and spin within those happier scenes
Can't be still
Don't know peace of mind
And I think of mistakes
Good ones
Bad ones
Run for my life
The one that used to be
The sweetness between you and me
Again
Ignition turning
Tires screaming the way I want to
Grinding that clutch like it was what's left of-
My heart burning into cinders
And I say to you
With bags in hand
A quiet tear in my eyes
Good-bye
Good-bye
Don't you know I gotta run?


...So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom
And I'll go wearin' my naughties like a jewel...
I'm still an angel to a girl who hates to sin
