Ontario Gothic

I was trapped under concrete
Built from the memory
Of all the daydreams
That I buried underneath
Now find me a way to divide
All of the noise on the other side
We’ll change where we live in the fall
Soon it will feel like nothing is wrong
And I could see who I should be
Though a past that casts its shadow down over me
In empty fields on summer nights
I feel the flashing lights
Teeth clenched in moonlight
A limitation, want to ignite
Reset my biology
The imitation, the apology
And I felt just like a child
I’m taking it all from the other side
Driving with you in your car
The home that I know seems so far
Spring, fall, I’ve lost it all (the morning fog)
Your empty street where we would meet
These parking lots bless us with peace
Your light has strayed, there’s no release
