One at a Time

song lyrics I wrote and posted on AET but you know how those Philistines are...

One at a Time

There are days
The breeze stirs
Just enough to remind me
Of its presence
The sun caresses
Our dirty city
With long hot fingers
I love to hate
So I hide myself
In a cave
And there I wait

For my cloudy day

There are days
I no longer
Tolerate the broken bottles
Survey markers
The barbed wires
In our eyes
Stringing up souls
Stringing them up
One at a time
So I hide myself
In a cave
And there I wait

For my cloudy day

There are days
When I forgive
Myself and you because
I know there'll never be
Enough time
Bullets or friends
To get started
Let alone do it right
So I fool myself
I take the bait
I leave the cave
Because I know
She'll wait for me

Oh my cloudy day

justam

Sometimes hiding in a cave is the best way to get a mind back in some type of order!
