A Small Explosion

It’s a little late
(our) bodies betray us
The gears no longer grind
We could wait
All paranoid
Who has the time?

We could watch
The world around us
Pass us on our porch
Or we could cause
A small explosion
Just under the floor

Let’s light these fires
Blood pact, no liars
Just drive, just drive away

There are roots
They complicate things
There’s others to appease
But really we
Could take them with us
I’ll grab the keys

Things change, new chapters
Happy ever after
Only one way to know
Shoot first, no questions
Teach them these lessons
So that they won’t be afraid
