I only feel alive
When I'm driving away from here.
How many miles
Can I cover in one night?
Probably not enough.
Maybe I'll drive until I hit water.
Maybe I won't stop.
I have this recurring nightmare
Of driving into the ocean.
It's not hard to figure out.
The ocean is the best analogy
For the unknown
That could probably exist.
It used to terrify me.
But
Everything that I know is here,
And I don't care for it much.
Maybe I should take my chances
With the ocean.
