I didn’t kno to reply It was al of a coward as I was starting to feel these days

"And it reat music"

And there he was!

I made a face at him and thankfully it broke the intensity between us

"The next verse" I tapped one ,

I’ forthe words directly into O’Dea’s eyes and when I was finished, I couldn’t help feel curious about the intensity of his gaze as he watched me What the hell went on in his head? It was a mystery Finally, he said, "Pen"

After I threw it over to hi in the ames are out of my head,

I uncovered all the lies you ever said,

And now I’m free for life"

O’Dea raised an eyebrow "You write fast"

"Sometimes Sometimes it comes to you You know exactly what you want to say When I first started writing this one, I’d just left for Europe I didn’t knohat I wanted to say Now I do"

He threw the pen back to me "Better write it down"

As I scribbled down the words, he asked, "And is that how you really feel? Or is it how you wished you felt?"

And for so--I answered honestly as I stared at the words "It’s how I feel with three thousand miles between us"

Hoould feel if I ever had to face Micah again was a totally different story

"And then into the chorus," I said before O’Dea could respond

"Repeat of the first?"

"Yeah"

All too soon, I forgot ere writing together I forgot about the albule

Instead I enjoyed the process I enjoyed writing et hed together and worsewe agreed all the ti broke the spell

"Shit, what tiht of the sun dipping below the buildings across the Clyde

"We’ve been at this for hours"

"You need to eat" He put down his guitar and strode into the kitchen "What have we got?"

"I have a meal plan, remember"

"Where is it?"

"In the drawer to your left" I watched hi to cook my dinner?
