Have you ever tried to drive…

With your back to the steering wheel?

Do you think you would survive?

Or would “driving blind” get you killed?



With your knees awkwardly

Pointing to the backseat

Reaching for the brake and gas pedals

Using the heels of your feet



Twisted arms gripping

For the roar of the ignition

The start of a mission

That will surely end in collision



Trying to move forward

With the back window as your only view

Navigating northward

Stuck at every corner- Not knowing what to do



Not seeing

That you are hitting

Everyone and everything

Standing in your way

Not realizing the damage… until it’s done

And all of your passengers pray to be saved



Every sign missed

All of the lights ignored

Causing other drivers to swerve

To avoid the destruction you’re headed for



This is a crazy way to drive

It’s also a crazy way to live one’s life

Not able to see positivity

Only focusing on your pain and strife



Driving backwards through this world

Is a great way of dying fast

How can you push to a brighter future

If all you see is the darkness of the past?
