Jerked the steering wheel to the median joking that wed end our lives we weren't joking all the time

I think this isn't a public place for words any more.

I had an epiphany last night, while sitting making dinner: this is the first time I finally feel grown up. I've learned so much, learned the hard way so often, and guess I've come as close to a peak as I am going to get. Yes, I'll always be the same old me: a raging drunk, a violent and scorned girl, the same old heart-on-the-sleeve but never come quite close enough woman. The innate parts of me will always be there, but my life rolls on.

And we've learned that life is one big game
Where the winners are all getting paid
So stop dragging your feet behind
You can't live with the folks all your life
So on those days home in your car
We jerked the steering wheel to the median
Joking that we'd end our lives
But we weren't joking all the time

The insignificant words of others will be my mouthpiece, sorry to disappoint the gossips. If you want to know what is going on in my life, ask me. The phone never rings nearly enough.
