the Big Return

I wait for years for the Big Return

Your head is on the wrong pillow

My heart is in the wrong box

And I’m waiting for you to come back to bed

And tell me the crash is over

 

 

The wait feels like a river

And there I go away from my dreams

And common sense

 

I can’t save myself from the waterfall

 

It’s hard when I hit the bottom

And I’m soft

Concrete against cloth
