Parking Ticket

Press down the pedal as you leave 70
It's similar in every way
I second-guessed myself when
I brought you too close
Now there's no turning back
Somehow, you dealt with me
In spite of all these faults
And cracks in shifting sidewalks
You never thought you knew

And now I'm holding on
To this unpaid parking ticket
Cause that's the last time
You acted like the you that I know
And maybe you've changed
Or I've lost my resilience
I guess that's the way
Things go when you just push me away

I framed and sketched
Every arrogant step
I'd take you out
I'd lead you through
Now we're slipping,sliding
Sifting through a silk camisole
I did it all for you
And somehow
You fell on me
And never let me go
I guess you never knew me
The way you thought you did

And now I'm holding on
To this unpaid parking ticket
Cause that's the last time
You acted like the you that I know
And maybe you've changed
Or I've lost my resilience
I guess that's the way
Things go when you just push me away
