100 to 0

Flashing blue and white
all that matters is fight or flight
clutch goes down upon the floor
flash back to walking through the first school door
knuckles white upon a clenched hand
shift into third
clutch comes up
pedal goes down
think back to the first bad grade
RPM’s now up to six
sword fighting in the back yard with sticks
clutch downshift straight into five
back to grandmas pool
so scared for the first dive
pedal down
first time upon a plane
feeling as if it was not only the eagles who could soar
flashing blue and white
now slowly fading out of sight
still not letting up
see it but just don't care
blowing past a stop sign
now merging onto the freeway
lights up ahead forming a line
roadblock laughing as if almost to say
your mine
100 yards away
want to get out but can't stop
theres a price left to pay
speedometer 162
can't slow down so much left to do
