• I don't usually plan these, so they come out randomly, and don't always make much sense as a whole, but sometimes those ones are the better ones =================== Staring blankly down the road To that faded blue sky And strangers glaring faces Slowly passing by Heading to better places Than those around here It’s all crushed cigarette packs And broken bottles of beer When nightfall brings the cold And the bugs that never die Climbing through the windows Taking over our lives We sleep to flee the day To leave this all behind And wake up back at one Like we never said goodbye Hey, aren’t you hot out there underneath the billboard sign Don’t you wish that you could be here to see her when she opens up her eyes With the shadows of the afternoon Blocking out the light He lowers down to make his move Intent to put up a fight But through the mountains and the trees He vanishes from sight And the sound of darkened victory Chirps through all the night But the stars don’t shine at all The street lights are too blinding And the moon is much too small You can hardly see it shining But the fireflies that remain Never need reminding To make up for the solar pane That’s vanished from the sky Hey, aren’t you hot out there underneath the picket sign Don’t you wish that you could be here to see her when she opens up her eyes
