Alpenglow

Thursday, the world set on fire
Crippling all the lungs of the weak
Frightened like a rabbit on a wire
M Train screechy halt so metaphorically

We choose how we deal with disaster
Do we rise above or crumble to our knee?
There'll surely be no ever after
If we don't help our neighbor to their feet

I just can't leave it all behind
It still makes me feel so alive
But I miss the peace & the quiet
Pour wine and dream
Of who I want to be

Friday, the times are getting bleaker
All our hearts apart at least six feet
Can't help but scream it through these speakers
But we'll only take the love we think we need
Nothing is scaring me faster
Than not knowing who or what I should believe
We built these walls to shelter from the cold years
Now we're freezing for eternity

I just can't leave it all behind
It still makes me feel so alive
But I miss the peace & the quiet
Pour wine and dream
Of where I want to be
