1. SHATTER VIEW

It's like driving West at sunset
Barreling towards the fire
The glaring impossibility of finding your soul amongst the trash
Littering your only adopted legacy

Ponder all the while

Cleaning your clutter
Decorate the walls to display the mind
Unavailable for show
Assign it more meaning than one shelf can hold

Memories destructive as a hailstorm
(Take me away)
How you tremble in their echo
(Take me away)
And search for sunlight in the headlights

Racing East at eighty miles an hour
The trees that line the distance remain neatly in sight
While fences built to guide
Materialize as ghosts by your bedside

A longing for home
Not a long way to go
Do I fear the deer or await our collision?
Dragging my head from the life I've led

(Take me away)
Memories destructive as a hailstorm
(Take me away)
How you tremble in their echo
(Take me away)
And search for sunlight in the headlights

Reflected in the rearview...
(Take me away)
Reflected in the rearview
