Kate:
Let’s stand tall
The limelight’s calling,
The leaves are falling,
Let’s paint a new start to remember
Let’s fall
Get in Michelle
Michelle:
Kate led the way,
Through all of our road trips,
She believed that art was just a journey
She painted landscapes,
She drove us nowhere,
And I wrote stories ‘til there’s a buzz in my eye
She believed in rolling the window down,
And art was what we’re made of
You keep driving,
Then you stop driving
Then you keep driving,
‘Til she’s made a model
Of
You
Kate:
No, no, no, no, no
This ain’t right
Michelle:
What’s not right?
Kate:
Your descriptions. Your depictions. Put more effort into it.
Michelle:
I’m trying.
Kate:
Well, try harder.
Feeling the swirls from deep within.
Michelle:
The breeze is light, The sun’s sky high
Kate:
I see that every brush has a different width,
Michelle:
I watch as you pass me by
Both:
We’re flying high,
We’re painting birds
Michelle:
We won’t look down
Kate:
We’ll fly ‘til we’re burned
Both:
We’ll burn, We’ll burn, We’ll burn, burn
Kate:
Burn
Michelle:
Riding Round,
We head for the south
Or sometimes we’ll go West
And what else is left,
Is made up in our heads
Music is blasting,
The wind is blaring,
And we’re beyond caring
‘Cause crazy little me,
Has since seen the star you saw in me
Kate:
Michelle? What the Hell?
Michelle:
What?
Kate:
You’re too reluctant. You must strike strong.
Now,
You see the speed I’m going at?
Michelle:
Yes.
Kate:
Well, we’re driving at a speed where a collision is almost certain, unless I quickly change course. So, which way should I turn? Left or right?
Michelle:
I don’t know! I don’t know! Which way?
Kate:
Who cares? We’re gonna crash in 3…2… Which way?!
Michelle:
Ah! Right! Right!
Kate:
You sure? I hear uncertainty…
Michelle:
Turn right!
Kate:
Okay… Slow ‘Chelle, slow
Michelle:
I know, I know. Sorry
Kate:
Don’t apologise.
Painting a tree, somewhere brand new
Michelle:
Drive to a park, the tank is full
Kate:
Deflection.
Every tree holds places, few
Michelle:
Smiling as time flies by
Both:
We won’t walk back,
We’ve come too far
Kate:
We’ll be alright
Michelle:
For life we gaze up at the stars
Both:
We’re free, so free,
Just us, and the
Michelle:
Falling leaves
I don’t know you,
‘Cause I can’t see you,
You’re a last minute jump in the car,
And let’s go
You, I don’t know, But I do know,
Is I don’t have the strength inside…
To let go
I can’t look back, To seek what’s spaced,
‘Cause there’s a tear in my eye,
When I see your smiling face
From you I’ll drive,
I’ve come too far to feel like I’m not alive
And though you’re not alive,
I feel your soul bleed through me,
And though you’re a memory…
You’re all that’s left of me
Kate:
So, where do you wanna go now, Michelle?
Michelle:
Let’s take a left
Kate:
No, I mean where do you wanna go in life? What’s your dream, Michelle?
Michelle:
I’m not sure.
Kate:
C’mon, Michelle! Come on! What’s that one dream?
Michelle:
I want to be… an actress?
Kate:
Yes, kid! Yes! Come on!
Michelle:
I want it to stay like this forever…
The mountains and the seas,
Sunken starlight’s not empty
When we are here… together
Where there’s no hurt,
We’ll work out our careers,
Whilst Fleetwood Mac, their songs we hear,
The starlight’s full,
And there’s no time to sleep
Not when your soul’s in me
Within us, there’s no hurt,
We’ll work out our careers,
With music blasting in our ears
We’ve got David Bowie playing, long and loud,
To break down, I won’t allow
About ourselves, we are learning,
Limelight turns to dust
Leaning, retreating
A lost history
If on edge, will I learn how to just be?
Lean on in, To accept it, Paint a history,
To live in, Believe in, Stood still, Retreat,
Just a young girl,
I have no purpose as me
Trees, they’re changing, enslaving,
Their colours to us
Elated, they’re gifted
As their colours become dust
If I evade this, will I hurt?
Or will I change without growth,
And fade into the world?
She’s laughing,
And I’m laughing,
Just as though she’s alive
A sunken spirit,
Uplifting the Sky
If I believe it, will it work?
Or will I live out my life,
Rearranging the hurt?
