Platform 89

I passed you today
You don’t hold yourself
The same way you used to
Back when you, you still had a smile
It’s cold outside
And that train is not, is not taking you home
Condemned to live on the threshold
There is no love for you
Stripped from your birth right, birth right is death
Where were they when you needed them
Unwanted children of this lonely world
Misery loves company
Chained to misery
Keep your head high however you can
Topping up so you don’t hollow out
To replace where your heart used to be
Keep your head high however you can
Topping up so you don’t hollow out
Sick with jealously of all with love in their lives
Guarded backs
On the threshold of the warmth of your world
And the bleakness outside
Just for a glimpse of your world
I’d do fucking anything
Stuck in purgatory
Trapped in death’s waiting room
That train came in the end
Fade into the night
