oh hi!

so, this was a hypothetical
situation where I just had an idea
for a chorus and wrote it, which
then turned into a whole song.
well, it was hypothetical until two weeks
or so ago, when a similar situation
happened to me irl, but in a different setting.
I guess I predetermined it lmao.

I listened to The Smallest Man Who
Ever Lived while writing some of this song.

Whats Up Danger, Another Dimension, Hide,
Nonviolent Communication and other songs
inspired me to continue writing this specific song.

I've literally just realised that the last three are 
romantic songs and this is the total opposite lmfao

[ verse 1 ]

3:30 AM, we were flyin' down the highway

Lost in our own world, we were miles away

I'd never felt less blue

There's no place I'd rather be than here, with you

You turned the radio on

We started screaming some of my songs

Not caring what the whole world thought

'Cause it was just you and me

Getting high on each other's energy

Never thought I'd watch you leave


[ chorus ]

And if I'm bein' honest

I really thought you promised

That your love for me would be unbroken

All those words that were spoken

Thinkin' back to that one night, in the hotel

Didn't know it then, but my life would become

Hell


[ verse 2 ]

All the sweet melodies we played

The memories we made

I just watched them fade

Into a haze of grey

My sacred space

The mist hid the grave

Of the love that was once our happy place

Why did it have to change?

Now we're estranged

It didn't have to end this way
