antidote for loneliness

This is a rough draft. Some lines need work...I do know that, but this is all I have for now. Please critique this.
I'm 60 above the 25.
Sleepless nights just like last night,
I'm dragging the remains of this broken heart
An early morning sunset retraces
A dusty carved out name on my dashboard
The hourglass is flipped, time is wasting what was us away
It is left for the recollect of the left over corpses
From our overdramatic conversations
But that was last month, when we were an item of discussion
A time when mistakes like these fell through the cracks
Just an indication of your deceiving small talk
Counting one, two, three gleams of light
Exchanging three for five shines through my eyes
Every single streetlight counts for every one mistake
Car wheel to the pavement, time is wasting us away
This is just an indication of what is soon to happen
My heart on the floor and I'm screaming out the drivers side window
What happened to this test? I think you failed me along the way
Of love and lust I use to I trust. every truth is false cause you’re a liar
Where is your heart now? Where is my heart now?
My heart is on the pavement
Yeah that’s the one, dragging behind the muffler
Sparks fly like fire flies, pedal smashed to the ground
I don’t know about you, I don’t know about you
But my heart is drowning in my own self-pity
And I'm chocking at the thought of your smoky lies
My words of wisdom seem to be eager to please
