one for the road (hit the gas) by Paula Varela published on 2020-05-02T22:32:12Z Artwork by @ nyctophiliacmb Lyrics: Regret the second I break the glass without a sound, mistaking love with the fear of having you around. You throw the door to the ground. I put your record on, it sounds like silence in the night and save this feeling for when I curse your honey eyes cause we might be too close to be found. The funny thing is when you ask me to do the one thing I don't know how to do. The room is darker than the leather seats in your car and I dream of the day no one knows who we are. One for the road, another if we get too far. I know it isn't love, it's just the urge of being felt. I know it's not the time to think about how I fell almost under my own spell. The funny thing is when you ask me to do the one thing I don't know how to do. The funny thing is when you ask me to do the one thing... (One for the road...) So hit the gas, now we're under the city lights. So hit the gas, now we're covered in siren lights. So hit the gas, now we're running away from home. Hit the gas, now we have one for the road.

Confident and strong (despite what the lyrics say, ha!). Speaking the lyrics, awesome imagery of hitting the open road! 2020-05-03T05:59:08Z
