Beside, Besides

You’re my muse, so amuse me.
My buried words get life.
I will stick close to you all night.
Smoking half of the pack on the lonely drive back.
Stole through a million towns as the smoke settled down.
I am breaking my back just to make contact.
It existed before but would not manifest on these shores.
Watched the lake turn to ice and then melt away.
What a hell of a way for me to spend your birthday.
Would have brought you along but the sky was so grey.
Cracked the rocks with my fist just to feel something.
Smoking half of the pack on the lonely drive back.
Stole through a million towns as the smoke settled down.
I am breaking my back just to make contact.
It existed before but would not manifest on these shores.
So let’s push through the static (dropping lines just to have it).
You called and made my day (I want to make your day).
So with all things aside, amidst the words where I hide
You called and made my day, I want to make your life.
Not overwhelmed like before, I’m throwing lines to move forward.
It was smashed like math, I want to make it last.
Not afraid to lay down beside, probably you’ll make my night.
Was feeling just like bread, we’ll probably get baked in bed.
