Roadkill

Be sure to cover my eyes when we round that corner
Where we stood just inside the lines one long goodbye ago
One backward glance. bloody roadkill calling
I can't resist. I never could

And now just look around
There is no sign of us anywhere
There never was

Drove around with you all night. Angry hamsters spinning in our cages
Still angriest the backseat driver, softly:
"Can't you drive a little faster?"
Then daring us to come what may

And now just look around
There is no sign of us anywhere
There never was

Be sure to cover my eyes when we round that corner
