about

The saddest song ever...I can say no more.

lyrics

It’s a lonesome and freezing quarter to three
Streetlamps draw my monstrous shadow
I slip on the sidewalk, stumble in the street
Numb as the villainous wind blows

My nose runs while I sit and wait for the train
And wait for my mind to erase it
From my memory as the sun does to rain
And dew as the day breaks, beginning

When each day dies
And night comes to an end
I think about it again

I travel through pictures of red, blue and green
Place bets, small, on meaningless outcomes
Long for a chance to wake from a dream
Embraced in a familiar bedroom

My choices and voices gang up on me
They motion me this way and that
Sideways and blind ways, I cannot see
New routes to my unchanging past

With each new path
And phone call from a friend
I think about it again

I carve in my nightstand day one-o-three
This maddening streak seems unending
A solitary celebration of an anniversary
Just me and my mind for pretending

With each new notch
And letter I can’t send
I think about it
When each day dies
And night comes to an end
I think about it again
