U-Haul - James Barrett

I don’t see why

I just sulk in my room

Neglecting the sunlight and my family too

I’d listen to High Violet or Boxer

But I can’t hear those songs without collapsing to my knees

While you run on your feet

Fleeting

«People's actions are reflections of themselves»

That’s what you told me then

It’s what I’d tell you now

You ran off

Vanished into the night

I never saw you again

You never explained why

Held on to hope like a rope tied to your u-haul

It seared the skin right off

I’ve screamed so loud that words lose meaning leaving my mouth

Why dos everything go south?
