An Island

Shit got heavy like my eyelids
On the highway that won’t end
You got quiet like an island
So, I left
I headed out to sea, a toothless shark
An actor playing a part
But I can’t pretend to care like I did when
The unknown was my second home
Now we’re upside down, love
Gravity had a change of heart
I fell for the hell of it
I fell for it all
I’ve incisive intuition
It’s a curse more than anything
Always the first to know how everything ends
Bullets in June
A nice night for a knife fight
Between two boats drifting
The sun shines on you, love
I’ll live like a bird below
And I’ve been cast out like the enemy
Forever in the dark
