I think of us,
Imagine a neon line painted on asphalt.
I claw at the boundary, stripped bare
Dig my finger nails deep
just to watch them bleed.
These places we have come to fear the worst,
turned inside out
could be a different world--
let the past leak down the gutter,
dream out loud.
But we forget that in people,
there is some devil.
No force, however strong
can weld a crooked pipe straight.
and it's cold
and it's cold
and it's cold
We are homesick most for what we have never known.
