I Take Flight

I take flight
Just me and my bike
The stars lift me up in the dark
Like a dog in a spaceship
I fly out of sight
You were right
Freedom tastes better at night
But the black in my head makes it harder to feel
Like the dark isn't bright
Oh so bright

Sometimes
I feel
A weight
An aching in my thighs
And heels
Mistakes
That I think we're cries for help
When I felt ashamed
When I wasn't myself

I take flight
Just me and my bike
As the rain turns my hair to a drip
The music pours in like my head to a bong rip
You were right
Phoebe sounds better when it's late at night
When the heavy heart sticks
To another quick fix
That will push you out of sight

Sometimes
I feel
A weight
An aching in my thighs
And heels
Mistakes
That I think we're cries for help
When I felt ashamed
When I wasn't myself

Could you stay the night
I ask you say it's better if I go
Let's not dig another hole
By speeding up what should be slow
So we say goodbye
And you leave
And I'm left alone with my sheets and my grief
The heaviness feels like a peach-less pit
And I feel it go down like wine in my spit

Shit

Sometimes
I feel
A weight
An aching in my thighs
And heels
Mistakes
That I think we're cries for help
When I felt ashamed
When I wasn't myself
