Check Engine Light
“One Year Later”
I spent my winter inside watching rom-coms
Trying to move on like nothing was wrong
Messed me up good but in time the seasons will change
I spent my entire spring like it don’t mean a thing
Went for walks in the park, smelt the roses again
Because just like the good, all bad things they must come to an end
I spent my summer in sweat filled with zero regrets
Drank a few beers and watched a few sunsets
Finally now I don’t think things are the same
Because here I am one year later
Convinced myself that I don’t hate her
But don’t hate me if I never see you again
Three more seasons to go
And I’ll be alright
No more feeling alone
Staying up all night
Three more seasons to go
And I’ll be just fine
No more aching bones
Or these tired eyes
If you don’t break you’ll never know
When you’re down just which way to go
And when you're lost you won’t stand a chance
Woah, I’m telling you get back on your feet
And maybe one day you will be
The kid who you were before you lost it all

“Wicked Witch”
Ding dong, the witch is dead
Finally. Now I can breathe again
Lose this rope around my neck
And I regret all the words we left unsaid
But right now I’m moving ahead
On the road that’s paved with yellow brick
Letting go of the past
Peace of mind at last
Here we go
I’m on my way to nowhere fast
I’m halfway there, there’s no turning back
From this point on I’m moving on
Forget the past
Don’t care what you think of me
Because I don’t think about you, the times we had, the things we used to do. I’ll forget
No more blood left to bleed, broke my bones, scraped my knees
And it’s all no thanks to you
I think it's finally time I'm letting go of the past
Forget the past
