34 streets

43 streets

Blues beat, electric church,

Never look at me

Just stare at your feet

Can’t look back at me

Maybe it’s a play day

Maybe it’s the good way

All these soldiers were trained

To just bare the pain

So much black

City of night

I can’t find anyone to help me rest

And the times gone by

Everyone wants to get high

Just spend another dollar to pass the time

All these empty things

Melodic dreams float through the glass walls

 Painted in blueberry cream

 

 And it’s all just passing through and passing by
