A Realness

Who am I

Who am I

Clutching the wheel with both hands

I am learning how to drive

My heart is racing

Rising

It's how we survive

There's a realness

To the hands

That pull you away

There's a realness

To the voice

That asks you to stay

You're the door

That keeps closing

Keeps closing on me

I am the heart

Always broken

Broken by that sound

It is not enough

It is not enough

It's never enough

It is not enough

It is not enough

It's never enough

Please don't go

So let's drive

So let's drive

Watching the wind with both eyes

I am moving away

Clutching the wheel with both hands

I am running away

Please don't go

You'll never stay
