Scatter Me - Emily Davis

One day, I might drift off

I’ll float about for miles

Without a purpose, without a place to be

New city every day

Each night, a new escape

A melody, the only trace of this phantom runaway

Oooh Once upon a time

Bittersweet South Caroline

Nearly stole my very soul from me

A trembling, hungry breath

Then the semi and I met

I should’ve become breathless debris

Now the idea terrifies

Of endless, all-night drives

But that’s where I thrive and

That’s where I need to be

So if I die out on the highway

I’ll lose my life where I loved it the most

If I die out on the highway

I’ll lose my life where I loved it the most

Scatter me across the country

A little bit in every county

Scatter me until I’ve covered it all And if I die out on the highway

I’ll lose my life where I loved it the most
