Fight Or Flight

Stopped on the block in the pouring rain
My feet soaking wet and my breath
Has run away, not me today
How can I move when I want your hand
It's wishful thinking to maybe understand
My feet won't land
And now I resent what you've given me
Who knew anybody could leave so easily?
Not always me

Call me your guy and I'll become your ghost
Float away and haunt you from a post
On another coast
A seed down the throat that makes it hard to breathe
Burn the roots that give you what you need
Now that is me
But it'll be alright

So don't feel ashamed if you fall apart
It could take a while to repair a heart
Your place is a mess but really
That's a start
So slip on your jeans there's a jaunt ahead
We'll move outta place with our faces red
If I didn't have legs I'd probably be dead

Don't look away it's just a lucid dream
Say the words and I'll repeat the scene
It's what it seems
I'll shake til I cry while bringing down the pack
And hear the ways I'll keep myself intact
I'm fading fast

It's gonna be alright
Gonna be alright
Gonna be alright
It's fight or flight
