A List That Knocked

God, Save the Queen –
– walking out the front door.

And then you find a windmill.

You do what you have to do to survive.

It's when the Stockholm looked both ways;
and then crashed into the Anna Doria.

Those Saints waiting down, they have seen it with their eyes. 

That's One Way To Go

Smoking a cigarette now isn't the worst.

Pull me away in the shiny black hearse.
Drive me out –
– to the country.
Put me in the dirt.
It doesn't feel that bad until it hurts. 

On and Off Again

I used to wait up for you to call. Now, I try to ignore the fact it's not ringing. I took the promise personal. I'm not sure if it's the word "promise" or "personal" that makes me listen harder. 

Courage to Flee

So she's out of here. Yep, she's gone. My best friend. So much hurt and frustration gave her bravery to run. To start over.
