I found the wreck before the sunrise. Not the metal. Already taken away. Just the outline, broken glass... A left turn that never finished. Crows refuse the shoulder. The wind kept repeating No one remembered (no one...) Someone said, "Drive west." Someone answered, "We're already here." Every mile remembers. Every headlight bends. If you wave from here... don't expect a wave back. (Keep driving...) (Keep driving...) Ghost on the highway counts exits, instead of sheep. She wears the moonlight, the trees become tears long after the impact. Charlotte sometimes. I never see her, get in. Everyone hears her I am the passenger. Long roads grow when she's lonely. Do not stop where the flowers wilt. Do not answer The radio calls your name. Do not look in the rear-view. The second face... is waiting for the first. Every mile remembers. Every curve forgets. The highway keeps the daylight. The desert keeps the secrets.. (Keep driving...) (Don't slow down...) A voice... too quiet to hear: "I never left the road. The road... left me."
