11AM
That same day
I'm walking home, I'm all alone again
But somehow
I'm allowed to be
The storm in my head
Gone away
A certain tone, I've never known descends"So what now?"
That's what he said to me
There's an empty bed
Struggling to tell if I'm asleep or dead, like
With the ways ahead
The grown are ever fighting and the kids see red, like
Would have been there and then
But I don't want a prayer to be my last words said, like
So I'm here for them
The momentary solace when I call my friend, like
I watched the train float up from the track
The passengers, they stared at me as I made my way back
Met an old friend
A pain in his eyes had faded the smile from youth
Said to me"when it all ends""This hellscape was a better place with you"
