A Chance Counsel

Another washout, brakelights showing
 Probably gonna slow down, no way of knowing
 Let's hear the outline
 I see where it's going
 I know where it came from
 a bubble in the moment
 Someone'll find out
 Finishing the time
 Crashing around
 And one night you'll try it
 Is something at stake?
 Seen off safely, but I could've used
 A chance at maybe, a time or two
 One for the distance
 and speaking of the roar
 Stopping just to listen
 at her number on the door
 Isn't something calling,
 coming as you go?
 Never and always
 and missing the throw?
 With hours on the fade
 It wasn't where you found it
 returning late again
 Waking dressed from before
 in some week-long bed
 Leave it all still made
 Fall to a weak floor
 and let it lay
 Think of somebody
 too far away
 Get something easy
 lost in the fuel?
 Come back tomorrow
 with a new excuse
 Sparklers are passing
 to the corners of the night
 "I feel the heat, and they move on glowing
 but I can pull away"
