I get lost in my thoughts often.
It’s almost like riding the passenger’s side of my own car
It’s my life that i cant seem to care
For, the time that I’ve spent living on earth
robbed me of
The energy granted at birth,
Its all been wasted and drained,
from the pain that drives me sane
i cant seem to stretch and reach for the gear
i thought maybe changing the speed a little
Could make things simple.

But, the wind embracing my face
brings me to a different place,
the feel brings blurred memories
to focus, so i lay back and rewind

i get lost in my thoughts often.
i didnt realize how real my reflection looked in my shattered side view mirror
“oh my dear, what have you become”,
Is what i thought.

i get lost in my thoughts often.
and i didnt realize that i was at
the edge of it all
close to a fall,
A fall to what i thought would be the end
of endless laughter among us, temporary silence cracked by our smiles, and a recovered friendship that once slipped through our grip
As much as i get lost in my thoughts
I remember how selfless you were
To trade with me,
pain for energy
Sorrow for love,
You delayed your fixing to help me fix me

I get lost in my thoughts often.
It’s almost like riding the passenger’s side of my own car but it’s just for a while
It’s my life that i can’t seem to care for, but
the feel of your hands keeps me warm till the end of the ride.
