Where the Pavement Meets the Road - Sullivan

You take your shots and then you’re out the door.

I want out.

You draw my blood and then you’re out for more.

I want out.

This may not come as a surprise,

but I own you

I don’t want to let you down.

It isn’t safe to seek your crown.

if I can’t be a fallen soldier in your war.

You can’t trade your servants clothes

for the secrets I can’t show

where the pavement meets the road.

A prisoner within your broken smile.

I want out

This cage won’t hold without your burning eyes.

I want out

This may not come as a surprise

but I own you

I don’t want to let you down.

It isn’t safe to seek your crown.

if I can’t be a fallen soldier in your war.

You can’t trade your servants clothes

for the secrets I can’t show

where the pavement meets the road.

Better to seek you than to defeat you.

All my horrors

settled you down

By the light of the maker’s storm.

I don’t want to let you down.

It isn’t safe to seek your crown.

if I can’t be a fallen soldier in your war.

You can’t trade your servants clothes

for the secrets I can’t show

where the pavement meets the road.
