I know this map by heart
and still pretend I’m lost
you called out
and I didn’t stop
I listened to your call
then brushed it off
I’ve walked this path before
but I move straight ahead
I was listening earlier
when you were inside of my head
now it’s replaced with
self-spite
I heard your call
but I called it a night
I kicked the dirt
and shrugged it off
I hurt myself
laughed it off
you called out again
I dismissed it
and moved on
I left on purpose
so I wouldn’t hear you
I didn’t look back
and kept moving
