follower of Christ The story is so thrilling. It makes me want to know more.
I really hope those thugs never caught up with Jody and the kids, or got to weaponise her formula.
But what on earth is a mercenary driver?!!
Favorite track: My Crush (feat. By Forever).

Saw you looking with that side on stare, Can't hide from me for too long, Hide outs, stake outs in the city, It's getting too much, Take a day off, So I took her for a walk on a Saturday night, We talked about what the future holds, Looked up at the stars, oh man what a sight, Shared glances with our eyes then the floor, You are my crush, I wanna hold you close forever now, I just can't get enough, Wanna make it out of this town with you, Yeah you are my crush, I wanna hold you close forever now, I just can't get enough, Wanna make it out of this town with you, By my side, Curious eyes behind those sunglasses, I wonder what's on your mind, Baby I know that we are taking our time, But I've had enough, I got something to get off my chest, 'Cause all this time been making her smile, Even though right now we're living through hell, Take her hand, oh man what a thrill, I turn to her and finally say, You are my crush, I wanna hold you close forever now, I just can't get enough, Wanna make it out of this town with you, Yeah you are my crush, I wanna hold you close forever now, I just can't get enough, Wanna make it out of this town with you, By my side, (my crush) Want you by my side, You are my crush yeah, (I want you now, be by my side) You are my crush, I wanna hold you close forever now, I just can't get enough, Wanna make it out of this town with you, By my side,

How long have I been Hiding what I feel? Underneath my skin, Are thoughts of what could be real. How long must I wait, To let go of the truth? I will come undone, With desire for you. This secret, So buried deep inside. Can’t keep it anymore, All is revealed tonight. Now is the time, don’t you hesitate. (Feels like we’re falling) Follow my voice, we will run away. (Freedom is calling) And I can’t breathe, and I can’t go on without you. So take off with me into love’s escape, in love’s escape. How long must I ache, Yearning for your touch? No more keeping quiet. Letting go, I’ve had enough. How have I survived, Without having you near? I will take your hand, Without an ounce of fear. No secrets, We’re suddenly alive. Not afraid anymore, We’ll flee into the night. Now is the time, don’t you hesitate. (Feels like we’re falling) Follow my voice, we will run away. (Freedom is calling) And I can’t breathe, and I can’t go on without you. So take off with me into love’s escape, in love’s escape.
