This pain in my neck persists since the accident
The Vermont license plate I hit
Came out apologizing
The only way I got to know him
Was through a crash and exchange
Of insurance information
Now I pay for it in the physical sense
And the literal way
My bank statement can relay
And the way my foot stomps down
On the brake when I feel afraid
Kinda similar to the way
I am with loving these days
I’m not cruising just yet
I’ve been alone for two full rotations of seasons
I’ve been hot and cold
I’ve seen frost melt off slow
No one on my mind
No one to wait for or pine
And I’ve been doing just fine
I’ve not known love for a long time
