Heading South

Lightning, the perfect light A flash and gone Darkness rules We Seep into every space with only A flash Before youre taken Crawling to a stop they look around for the noise It will be too late As if them ever had enough time Shirley always too busy for them Peter needs friends not them Them don’t even want them Them look forward to work Business takes them’s time away Darkness does not care We will take your time Them’s attention is too short But them will always try Shirley never wanted to go Peter always just sleeps With your eyes dark Light brings understanding Not tonight only flashes of un dr stnd g Storm Make light fade Wipe faster Not enough for clarity Constant rhythm Cheat Get caught Them are perfect Shirley and Peter are dark no A no way life needs A’s, light needs S neither come Flash: Shut up Peter! Flash:Quit bickering! Flash:like you two are e am pl s Screeching Stopped Cabin light on: get out now! Finish this? You never finish anything This trip will finish now Shirley hates this Men never happy as bravo male Its dark, them can we just go? Off they go into the south looking Flash: Turn! Too Late Don’t always trust your light Seeing everything does not cl r fy We know Seeing, Turning makes them whole We Rule the road
