you win

My white flag is flying
I'm walking away
You've made it quite clear
That you don't want to stay

So I won't keep trying
No I'll no longer fight
My best foot put forward
But you're far out of sight

So am I the loser
Since you won the war?
I can't help but feel now
The same as before

I knew your name
And recognized your face
I was on my own path
Running at my pace

Now I'm back on that path
Blowing with the breeze
My love being spent
On whomever I please

So yes, you've won
But I didn't lose
At the end of all this
You made a great muse

this town

I miss the sun on my face

Warm wind in my hair

Sand stuck to my feet

Not having a care

My life here is dry

It’s as cold as the night

I can’t seem to thrive

I can’t seem to fight

I feel my heart wanting

To just pack up and go

It’s calling me ever

So quietly so

To some other place

Full of culture and joy

A place to plants roots

Who knows? Meet a boy?

But I stay where I am

No I can’t up and flee

I just hope that this place

Won’t suck the life out of me
