Change

Change everything you are
Everything you were
Change everything you were going to be
Life has slipped you by
It’s slipped me by
It’s slipped us by
We have everything to lose
We have nothing to gain
It’s why we’re here
I’ll change every thought of mine
Every memory
I’ll toss it away like garbage
Jump in my car
And let the miles add up
Every fence post we past
Is a change from the last?
We’ll take a drive and never look back
I’ll change everything of mine
But my thoughts of you
And your thoughts of me 
And my thoughts of you
We’re perfect in each others eyes
And change will do us good
A new road
Leads to a new city
To a new province
To a new state we need not explore
Or bags rattle in the trunk
Our pawned lives fill out wallets
Enough for gas and plane tickets
A car adds to what’s been sold
I loved that car
I love you
I love the change
The getaway
The new lives we’ve made
We must find a way to pass tomorrow
Leave it where it is
Have a scare
Laugh it away
This change is laughable
Worth a wile
Worth everything we’ve turned away
Worth the tears
The fears
And everything that follows
