Minnesota

Someone once told me

Good byes never come easy

I believed him as he believed that

He’s not the only one who is suffering



You’re always welcome back

I could use your lungs

I have been fighting asthma attacks for so long

Saying the words I’ll see you around

Resonates a pleasant sound

Saying the words I’ll see you around

Left an awful taste in my mouth



I tried to call you

An answer back is all I need

Sometimes I wish I could join you

But I’m too scared to leave

I wish you’d react when I say

Minnesota is not that far away



Someone once told me

You are your own machine

I’ll try not to self-destruct myself

With reoccurring dreams



Take some steps back

Get distracted by evergreens and river streams

I wish you’d react to when I say that

Minnesota is not that far away



I am a cascade

Drowning in my own waves

Maybe someday I’ll run away
