Joyride

Let’s go for a spin.

Getting over someone is hard. It’s not easy letting someone in

Your guard is up, but like a car at the dealership, they take you for a spin

They crash on the breaks and come to a stop, the car flops and your tire pops

The paint chips and the car drips missing your lips they run down your cheeks

They leave you stranded, you’ve just been abandoned

You think it’s the end, but it's not. A tire can be replaced, the paint can be fixed

Mixed feelings make you uneasy your engine revs to keep people away, one person will sway to your door turn on the keys, your heart is at ease

So you go for a ride, and this time they stay by your side.
