I hate coffee
but hear me out

What if
we drove off
Nowhere, anywhere
just us?

We would stop at a gas station
Buy five dollars worth of coffee
We would wake up our bodies
Since the night will have just begun

Sure, the bitterness attacks
The neon lights blind
Yeah, the darkness out there terrifies
The breeze sends shivers down our spines

But

What if
we stayed home
Let the fog take over
alone?

We would lock ourselves up
Grab the weapons in our cabinets
We would wake up our bodies
Wishing for the night to end

The sting attacks
The bathroom lights blind
The darkness in here terrifies
The fear sends shivers down our spines

I hate coffee
but hear me out

What if
it's our way out?
The blade is calling
but the road is louder

So let's drive off
Nowhere, anywhere
just us

Because yeah,
I hate coffee
but I hate the pain more.

To all the coffee lovers and the pain seekers, both looking for that wake-up call

A fawn feels
His breath on her neck

The headlights flash

Her legs are thin
Shivering in the breeze
He holds them tight
Wish he would let go

Her back is soft
Covered in white spots
He caresses it
Wish he would stop it

The dark oaks
Silent giants
Rise high above her head
Watching, never saving

The headlights flash

She should escape
Before it escalates
But if she runs
He might shoot

Is the gun to her head,
or his?

The headlights flash
Waiting for her to do something
Anything at this point.

To all the deer who were backed into a corner, unable to speak up
