Stranger Than Fiction

"Let's start with the ridiculous and then move backwards."
- Stranger than fiction

The road ... it winds snakelike
The wish to shed the spying headlights
The plot needs a solid twist now

I say that you burn
And you burn ...

The cause-and-effect rule
Is it the relentless code of fiction
That made her steer off the clear track?
Blurred out of view and faded ...

It never stops haunting -
You're here
And the next thing I know
You're gone,
Just as I wrote it.
These words -
They have bodies and faces
They live.

Fact or print - you are bound with me,
Now and then you're entwined in me

Be it fate or plot - you are tied with me,
Here and there you're confined in me

It never stops haunting -
You're here
And the next thing I know
You're gone,
Just as I wrote it
These words -
They have bodies and faces
They die
