Barely Survived

We're waking up slowly. It's too early to talk.
The silence is calming my head.
We enter the car and begin the long drive.
We drive through the night just to make it on time
We are caught in the death of snow and it's safe to say it's cold.
We've been putting our lives on hold and the safest place is home.
We're starting the downgrade.
It's a treacherous hill.
I'm trying to not lose control.
I'm taking my time
We've reached the calm of the storm.
We've made it this time
But we barely survived.
We are caught in the death of snow
And it's safe to say it's cold.
We've been putting our lives on hold
And the safest place is home.
We held on tight just to survive this drive.
We're passing time. We're side by side.
We held on tight but we barely
Barely survived
