Last chance
Make this one up
To them
To us
Betrayer lay in the dark
He will be slain and lay dark forever
Some will dance on his grave
Others will poor whiskey
I will do neither
For I will be the one to plant the knife

Sad November sky
Jetstream trails
One final run
Pull up your scarves young dreamers
The sun will be setting soon
And with it, our dreams
Blue and white, skies of youth
Beyond them, all tomorrows
Behind them, visions of simpler times
I’ll embark on a final run today
Through those skies
Through those dreams
I hope to find you in the other side

Scurrying under umbrellas
Many broken hearts are near
Days like these come on heavy
Heavy like the rain
In some places the snow
Commuters try and make it home
To warm places
At home and in the heart
We’re so far from the sun here
In winter
In these days
The wind will bite at your face
The rain will drown your heart
And where are you on this eve?
As cars hiss past and clouds loom overhead
It’s winter here, in the land, and in my heart
Tree branches bare death
They fight off the cold
As do I
Brittle on the edge but warm somewhere inside

Cold Winter Car
He’s stuck by down by Ave A
Keep it warm, buddy
Keep that engine going
The girls are watching
Broken luck
Broken looks
Where should we go when we have all of nowhere?
Nowhere to be
Nowhere to go
Voices carry in these streets
Neon glows
Lights of the big big city
Cross that street in style, boy
Never know who’s watching, crossing or driving by

Tea and biscuits
My heart is heavy today
It’s a hard morning
A friend has gone away
Dead in the night
Ended his life
It’s a hard mourning
Across different lands
In different cities
Around me people are still trying, still moving
A contrast
All roads intersect here
Going everywhere at once
Connected
In loss
In travel
In time
I’ll continue to sit in these places
I’ll continue to mourn
With nothing set before me
Except for maybe some tea and biscuits
