Another Night

I drive for miles even after the glow
Of the service engine soon light shows.
Ever wonder what it would be like
If the world was flat and you could
Drive straight off the edge?
Probably would never actually do it,
But there would be something full of life
About the knowledge that you could.
It's an interesting thing that there are
So many roads to take you to the same places.
There is comfort in the knowledge that
You don't have to take the same way out
As you went in.
It's the idea that you can make it out
Even if you have burned every bridge
As you passed.
A dead end is just a temporary set back.
And the people that you meet...
Sometimes it's just a matter of passing each other by
But occassionally you crash into each other
Or have to ask directions, but there they are,
A person in your life.
