I can hear you heckling me
to play those sketchy little games
and I always convince myself that
I’ve got a shot at winning.
and of course I’m one
to be fearless, and eager,
and unbreakable
to take that wild ride with you.
but on every revolution
and each wicked twist and turn,
I get a little dizzy–
sick and confused–
and I wish you’d just stop this ride,
and let me off
to let me live–
live to enjoy the lights of the night
with you.
