I just wanted a ride
Why did you let me crush?
I knew you hit high speeds
But they told me you also had good governors
Told me
As long as you got brakes
And you had the best I’d tested
You opened yourself up
And let me start a journey with you
Smooth and slow
Nothing alarming even though I was a learner
Each mile you strengthened my confidence
And I stepped hard on gas to match up
I wanted to be closer if not a match
You had a limit to shut down
But even then you let me step on
Today I lie here
Crushed and broken
Motionless, feelingless,
Why did you let me crush?
Why didn’t you stop my heart
Why didn’t you shut me out
I just wanted a ride in love
Not a homeless broken heart.
