My Town

Streetlights look like ribs on my block
I can forget
Where I am now
Smiling as I pass some parked cars
I can forget
Where I am and
Run through my town
Scream till I faint
Stumble around
Scare kids away
Worn out I’ll be
Asleep on the street
Watch my whole town
Attempt to wake me
Sidewalks lend their backs to my feet…
I can forget
Where I am now
Houses shut their lights as I pass…
I can forget
Where I am and
Run through my town
Scream till I faint
Stumble around
Scare kids away
Worn out I’ll be
Asleep on the street
Watch my whole town
Attempt to wake me
This is the end
Of rotting away
In the back seat
This is the end
Of keeping it in
They’ll all know how I feel
