Depending on the Independent

A blistering breeze causes a sting

But also can fly a kite

Up in the air away somewhere

Off into the night

A broken floor supports a door

Open to the outside

Some fall through because it’s askew

But make it into the night

Sticks and stones and broken bones

Emergency room lights

I know you’re scared but it’s he who dared

To send you into the night

You question to leave and some should be

But hesitation is a knife

You love him true but he doesn’t need you 

He proves it every night

Leaving is hard into the dark

But the pain is in the mind

A blistering breeze causes a sting

Off into the night
