Ripple
Part I - Shadows
I walk along the sides
Of the lonely highway
I don't know where it'll lead
When I get to the end
Hopefully I can rest there
I hope it's okay to say
That if hope were real
It'd find me there
I reached the town of Rut Springs
The buildings cast long shadows
Am I the catalyst?
The chosen one I may be
But is that enough to save me?
I hope it's okay to say
That if hope were real
It'd find me there
Part II- Reasonable Shame
I left the hotel the next day
It didn't go my way
I don't want to let you go
I don't know how to let you go
Stop talking to me for now
Try again some other time
Gag me
Part III- Realization
Fuck me
Well fuck you too
Nobody asked your goddamn opinion
Stuck up bitch
Shut up bitch!
See that ditch?
Why don't you die?
There's certain people you just don't talk to
So why'd I talk to you?
Get off my ass
Leave me be
Get outta my sight!
Slowly slipping away
You're death will make my day
So close your eyes and go away
Let this blade inside as you fade away
There are certain people that you avoid
So why didn't I avoid you?
Get away from me
Get outta my sight
Part IV- Just After Sunset
There's a drought down south
Up north it's a wasteland of snow
The perfect weather . . .
Where will I go
When the monster is revealed
and chasing me down?
I'll shack myself up
With a Winchester
and wait . . .
Just after sunset
It's perfect weather
For the beast
I avoided you
Now it's haunting me
If hope were real
I hope it'll find me here
I hope it's okay to say
Just after sunset
Lock your doors
