Car Crash

You can drive past everybody in your car
Over these streets that hold you up
And still remember who you are
You can crash through picture windows
And crush corners of the room
You can call it quits too soon
But will you wait another year
For the ghosts in the room to disappear?
You can send back every letter that there is to be sent back
Every photograph and memory
Every scrap, 'til the past is torn in dotted lines
Until the past is torn in half
You believe that you can see thru? and over secret walls
And hold it all in your hands and not wake up
And run like rain, it runs out of the gutters of this town
But never drown
