Down

Down Down so low I forgot about being high Lost direction seems pointless to try Sounds are distractions and bring me no joy Head pounds, these inactions serve to destroy Golden has nothing to do with the silence here Memories I’m holdin’ bring me violence and fear Nothing as it seems, is this supposed to be our ever after We made all those dreams, but I can’t hear the laughter Searching my mind, trying to piece all of the broken smiles But it’s like trying to find the letters to spell love among Scrabble tiles But the only thing I find is I, and you see in my game love is spelled with I & U Seems silly but if you just try, you’ll feel the love when U & I are together too Bored games I play to forget, I’m just talking to myself the whole day through Picturing us sharing a sunset, spending eternity together just me and you Down so low but keeping the flame, long as I have air babe it burns The direction home is still the same, song on your mind making the turns Mile after mile sing it loud, done taking time; you want to share every minute U pull up out front won’t I be proud, satisfied with life now that we’re together in it Tim Windisch 07 29 2024
