Tunnels

Please don’t turn into another sad song

We have records worth of those

Don’t have enough wind to still land this among

The books that have drawn to a close

Cease and desist advances halt chemical romances

Another brick in your otherwise stone wall

Fondness of taking chances

Under such circumstances

What would constitute a graceful fall?

I hold my breath every time I go through tunnels

There’s not much else to do at this rate

When each passing day just disappoints and humbles

Maybe I’ll leave it all up to fate

Herculean trials

In pursuit of smiles

Perfect hindsight vision compromised

A more than noticeable change in style

Excruciating repetition summarized

I hold my breath every time I go through tunnels

There’s not much else to do at this rate

When each passing day just disappoints and humbles

Maybe I’ll leave it all up to fate

Please don’t turn into another sad song

I have a lifetime’s worth of those

With lines that you and your friends can sing along

Or dedicate onto your foes

I hold my breath as I drive into this tunnel

I’m left with nothing else at this rate

Close my eyes and hope with the steering wheel I don’t fumble and leave it all to fate
