You can’t smell it anymore, static cuts out the radio, it’s the new aftertaste in water. & the smell of someone’s house you’re visiting for the first time, Gawking at old buildings, hearing syllables differ- ntly, speaking the same, different, words heard A new kind of music and the scent of childhood You think you could stay here, escape You feel your soul change, and your heart beats stronger There is nothing to fear. There is nothing ***** here. How the thunder and lightening give you a new but old kind of fear but the rain washes everything the same.
