The kids all want to go fast. As fast as possible. Never letting up, Never slowing down. The gearbox only shifting in one direction. Every single road of Possibility is Stretched out Before us, Grassy and wanting wear. No second thoughts given. Triggers are pulled, both eyes closed. Lanes are chosen, bridges burned. Never comprehending There is no reset button. Only when we start to realize That we can’t go back Do we start to think twice. Slow down some and Put the top down.
In Too Deep - Genesis (playing while I post this)
All that time I was searching with nowhere to run to
It started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life
And who'd be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions to myself
But never finding the answers
