Another Year In Retrospect

Birthday in Brooklyn, my friends it's been so long
This group I've grown away from as gracious as a home
We sit in each others company in that corner brownstone
Distant regrets and distance dissipate in the summer air

Exchanging love and rhythm, God I know that I belong here
"This past year or so has been... you know, I couldn't place it"
Rehearsed lines covering for such tremendous wasted time
I wonder if they see through this disguise

Birthday for the queen, my friend it's been too long
Black curls dance in patterns around your somber head
All past and present desires remain unsaid
And the night comes to an end

Bridges burning bright behind as I cross the state line
The Newark air breathes sulfur as the poison floods this car
My head heavy like lead with the thoughts of what if and when
Taillights scorch the night and guide me back to my ignorance
