Minnesota

Someone once told me
Good byes never come easy
I believed him as he believed that
He’s not the only one who is suffering

You’re always welcome back
I could use your lungs
I have been fighting asthma attacks for so long

Saying the words I’ll see you around
Resonates a pleasant sound
Saying the words I’ll see you around
Left an awful taste in my mouth

I tried to call you
An answer back is all I need
Sometimes I wish I could join you
But I’m too scared to leave
I wish you’d react when I say
Minnesota is not that far away

Someone once told me
You are your own machine
I’ll try not to self-destruct myself
With reoccurring dreams

Take some steps back
Get distracted by evergreens and river streams
I wish you’d react to when I say that
Minnesota is not that far away

I am a cascade
Drowning in my own waves
Maybe someday I’ll run away
