January Road

Headlights blaze as my mind shivers alone

Driving an emotionless road made of stone

Lips sealed by mistakes made within a hour

Leaving me wanting a love no longer ours

Hands left barren without a ring to claim

Eager to retrieve it from an eternal flame

Eyes remember your face of pure delight

As you left with a man in fragile moonlight

Tires slip from the road like our connection

Crashing on a road made of your infection

Air bags catch my lifeless body in a second

As my mind roams to a voice that beckons

My heart stays behind as I crawl away

Screaming at a love that just wouldn't stay

I stroll alone in snowfall as my car explodes

Burning my past life on a January road
