This ride I'm on Leads to the dump. I, refuse that I am, Refuse to jump. I ride with Peels of poor me, Rinds of regret, Scraps of resentment, Empty bottles Of pain And emptiness. I, Drunk. I drank For forgetfulness, In misery and anger. Refusing questions, Not giving answers. I don't need To hitch a ride To the human dump, The soppy landfill. At any stop I can jump. Jump, And walk.

Ride of a Lifetime
This ride I'm on Leads to the dump. I, refuse that I am, Refuse to jump. I ride with Peels of poor me, Rinds of regret, Scraps of resentment, Empty bottles Of pain And emptiness. I, Drunk. I drank For forgetfulness, In misery and anger. Refusing questions, Not giving answers. I don't need To hitch a ride To the human dump, The soppy landfill. At any stop I can jump. Jump, And walk.
It's all in the choices we make.
