Maybe You'll Understand, Maybe You'll Never Speak To Me Again

Maybe you'll understand
Maybe we'll never speak again
But either way, I want you to know who I am

I don't mean to yuck your yum
Know you wish that I'd died young
It was easier to parse who you thought I was
Drive the country roads at night
Scanning for eyes with my headlights
Catching glimmers of garden variety litter

Some days I'm so happy I'm scared
Of the concussion that comes with lamp light
And that I'll wake up bruised and battered on the football field

Suddenly it's 2012
I'm crying in my pillow for years gone by
Shelves packed with a life I haven't started yet

And when we fall, we fall together
That's what you promised when we were kids
Mourning everything that we couldn't be for each other
Maybe you'll understand
Maybe we'll never speak again
Whatever you choose, I want you and me to be happy
