Transient

Driving through seasons on interstates and highways
It was always in the back of your mind
Trying to find the right time to leave
You were brave in the spring, but a coward in the fall
Unpredictable, like snow in July
You run and hide to what’s warm and familiar
But I’m still here with you on my mind
Trying to find my spine and the courage to recover
I fell in love in the summer, I’m climbing out this winter
Cold not bitter, like sunshine on the ice
A pain I don’t despise, heartache is worth it every time
