Find the Exit

I never thought I'd feel this distance
from the back room on Townsend Street.
Years of practice, of watching others find their exit.
The vibrations rewrote our melodies.
Did I fail the freeze-out protocols of the night?
And if it's all the same to you,
I'd rather walk than follow through.
Please remember we poured our lives into the folds created
in the spaces where time stood still.
I couldn't leave those worlds behind,
I built them brick by brick, stood up inside my mind.
It's all true, they're standing there as new
and it's where I get my topological view.
So if it's all the same to you,
I'd rather walk than follow through.

The North Woods

Up in the north woods, where they grow the headlines,
there were people standing across the road
as I attempted to drive by.
Yes in the north woods, where they found my body,
underneath the same moon and sky and you and I lie.
We go on.
We pass on.
'Played in a band once,' I muttered,
'and I thought we were good.
People came to see us, maybe more than they should.'
'I thought I knew you,' he said, 'I thought I recognised your face,
couldn't place it for the years have tolls that we must all pay.'
As if it mattered, as if it made a difference.
As if it changed the motivation triggered in that instance.
As if the glimmer of the space we'd once shared would have changed anything between us on the road there.
We go on.
Let us pass on.
