Cordless Radio

Stop the radio in my head
broken record repeating words
lines of love and loss and pain
echo throughout

Pause the sound for just a moment
I need to catch my breath
memories of the good and the bad invade
pulling me back into the cave

Shut it out, strike a match
the streetlights are dimming
watch the windy road become smaller
the candle is the only way out

And when one foot hits the ground
the other will follow
perfect symmetry, endless circles
lead me to colorful places

Hourglass shifts
the tune changes
don't stop the radio in my head
it's playing the right song.
