Lovely Crashing Colliding Off the rails and Into the water The black Those depths Known too well For such young lungs Sinking to swim Kicking Thrashing Brought to the surface By a balloon You never saw that before Red and love Don't rise too high You aren't a bird You're a trainwreck Dying to live

Trainwreck
Lovely Crashing Colliding Off the rails and Into the water The black Those depths Known too well For such young lungs Sinking to swim Kicking Thrashing Brought to the surface By a balloon You never saw that before Red and love Don't rise too high You aren't a bird You're a trainwreck Dying to live
Based very loosely on a conversation I had. I guess I'm just feeling edgy today.
