all is quiet on the last front

this is the best moment
this one here
and i wasted it writing
these words
i’ve stolen from
the air
and she would be standing here in the
rain
and proclaiming all her love
but I derailed from all
of that
fate tried calling
but i was drunken stoned
and i missed
out on the blue eyes
and i’ve missed out on the fame
and so here i am left standing
just a fool soaked through again
but there is chili on the stove top
and the boss is on the box
and scratch is sitting staring
out the window at the dock
and all is really quiet
and the amber light is still
i have carved this little hideout
so i guess my fate is due
but i won’t pay it on time
i’ve leaving in the morning air
fishing on the blackthorn
and i’ll be far away from here
so if she should come knocking
tell her try back in a year
i love this life i’m living
calm and quiet as hell
round here...
