OUT

Out

By: Tyler Ross

I’m out walking these streets tonight

As the wind cuts through my hair

I feel so gone

I tried to clear my head

I searched for strength to change my mind

It was hard enough to see straight

The night began to chill my skin

And I started to believe I wasn’t great

Then, I placed on my phones

Got on my bike and headed home

The music rushed through my bones

And I carried it with me

Until the feeling was gone

Out

I tried to pretend it was my fault

All the gray clouds enhanced my pain

Couldn’t seem to change a thing

I wanted to erase my mind

Its days like these you feel you’ve had it

Keep moving on but so stagnant

I told myself I wouldn’t dwell

But the pictures in my head gave me hell

Then, I placed on my phones

Got on my bike and headed home

The music rushed through my bones

And I carried it with me

Until the feeling was gone

Out

Living proof I can defeat it

The hurt pitted in my heart

I’ve got to dig it out

And break loose

The time is up
