zenn bites...

driving down the highway
with eyes all fogged up
the radio's turned on but it's soundless
lights all around yet it's dark

i need to floor the car
to push down hard
hear the roar and feel the rush
let everything pass by in a blur

i need to crash
to hear the sound of metal on metal
feel the pain and blood and bones
let the warm red liquid wash away my misery

i need to burn
go up in a fiery ball
fuelled by the hatred, that anger
releasing me from the all-consuming pain

from one end of the island to the other
i am just another crazy driver
encased alone in this metal box
yearning for eternal rest

no one sees the tears
no one hears my strangled gasps
no one smells my fear
no one feels the helplessness
