Roar

 You used to be my home,

Before it shattered, lost in time.

You were my whole world,

Until it collapsed before my eyes.

Show me the light,

Before my home was burned down.

And now,

I’m flying out of town,

Chasing the fire, as my heart aches,

Yearning for the pill,

You hugged me tight, yet let me go.

So how long must I stay calm?

Let me roar, my lord.

I called for the redeem,

But answers are lost in the wind.

           Hey red-haired guy in the back seat

Freefall

 Laying down on the couch,

Sitting upright, feeling cold,

But the room’s cozy warmth surrounds,

As flames roar low, half-mute.

Side by side we sit,

Oh, the girl—such a lady,

Don’t touch; she’s wild, like a cheetah,

High up on cloud nine,

We drive fast, toward the sky,

Together, aiming high.
