I'm less able to stand
and liable to fall.
that seat in the corner's for me
but she, yes you with the headphones on have gone and takenΒ Β it.
it's capital ain't it?
stand all your life and
think you're souring.
Him with the top hat sat next
to her in the corner with his head
buried in a paperback book
doesn't even bother to look,
The girl with three cases, one back pack
pulls faces as if I was to blame.
There are no friends to be made
it's one for oneself and all for one, the train carries on, I carry on, we all carry on
and some get off.
Friday
not a bad day but it never starts well and not if you're locked in your own private cell.
Her thumb's drumming on the glass screen of a Nokia,
knocking out her frustrations probably.
I'm letting it wash over me
it's just like a soap
without the suds.
