i lost the highway 43 miles ago
i ran until i cried
i thought the truth would always lead me home
i'd squeezed it til it lied
of all the places to be here
where is yours
i found god in an empty crate
there was some glass a rock and a bloodstain
i said sorry but this time you're too late
he just closed his eyes and felt the rain
pour
of all the reasons to be here
what are yours
i walked back and i numbered the weary lights
of where they hope to find themselves tomorrow
i lost count around the same time i lost faith
they all looked at me and wondered
how
of all the ones to leave here
who are yours
there was a boy with empty in his eyes
on the corner where you would wait
he said i'm sorry but there's no good down that way
i smiled and said i have lived these lies
home
of all the voices to silence here
which was yours
saw you sitting there like you always do
you had a different shade of smile on your face
i thought if you turned around i would talk to you
but you sat there
and you stayed there
and i lost you
for good
of all the things to destroy here
i was yours
