Jack walks down Arbuthnot street.
he hopes to meet a little more than anything on any street he's ever met before,but this he hopes on every street and his hopes are dashed each time he meets the corner where the lights of disillusionment turn red.

His feet are sore,each street he's walked on he has swore would be the last,he wonders who or what he's searching for.

Today he'll go again,he'll catch the train to set him down,another town and one more street,today he thinks that he might meet but doesn't know the reason why,he's getting old now,time's flown by.

As he walks down Eldridge avenue he meets the moment that he knew would come,the sun shuts out his shout and in the silence which the day has broke apart,his heart beats time and one last time within the speed of memories he see's what he's been searching for,and then
the door shuts on his life.
