Whats Left in This Town?
Folder:
November 2010 Silver and cold, silver and silent,
enough memories of countless sins to repent,
over the phone, just to live out her life,
she left this husband lost and lonely without his wife,
a few here and there, but nothing real enough to remember,
lonely twenty awaiting another in December,
bird learns to fly after breaking its wings,
finally remembers what it once was and relives everything,
over to the Navy, to live a dream you had since long ago,
while I'm a slave to unfortunate events until I'm sold,
no more connections, no warm shoulders for me to lean on,
whats holding me back from just leaving, surprised I'm yet to be gone,
a mom who has pills to keep herself sane,
while shes with a man to save bills in vain,
no where else to turn, too many reasons to burn,
it becomes someone I yearn for and wish would return,
a town filled with delinquents and nobody whose,
got any idea of the better future from the woes,
once I almost look up, I'm pushed right back down,
whats left for me out there, whats left in this town?
