Half a block back we passed a pipe from seat to seat in suit:
Just me and you in your junk of a car newly painted blue
We drew a pretty picture with smoke on foggy window-panes
Rock & roll like rhythmic soul to start a fire under me
We shook so explicitly illicit the car cried out in shock
We breathed out and in the sin of the substance underneath our nails
De-railed like a train drifting off to different planes of thought
Spot on or off depending on the impending fall of Microsoft stock
Blaring music out into the night, tires squealing so surreal
So feel me feeling you while we both struggle to break away
And live and love again another day
Ahead of me is an iris staring blankly back
Reflecting me in all my glorified naked nothingness
She cries sometimes, and can hint that vibe
From the gleam and the glint of her soft hued eyes
Empty but full of everything I couldn’t be
I tried for her, and that is more than most can say
Lets both toast to yesterday, tomorrow never came
Paths all meeting, in our greeting we both knew
That day by day our hellos were tied to a goodbye
Numbered steps in perfect sequence
We could've been so much
Worlds turn over and over like crashing waves
So quickly does present give its way to future woe
Looking ahead uncertain at the falling curtain scenario
We both know that it’s colder now than it was a year ago
Your heart grows older as our world turns over
And I think of you as you think of me
The beginning of the end
