6th and Virginia Melissa

Writing it down now
on a sedative
get your mind straight
you'll be relative before long

On her 33 looking for an empty home
listening to a record for memory
that can't go on for a lifetime
but it won't stop ringing

14 times 2 months ago
on life support
and noone knows what she is or
what she was there for

Are you alive now
Did you feel what you were looking to feel
will you care when you don't
and when its the last one of everything you own

How could you not get off and see
the beauty left behind
that can't be captured by your adventure
won't be returned to your misplaced desire
but waits with open arms to hold you
and smooth the wrinkles of your time's mistake
if not for you today

You'll always kick tomorrow
