Rest in peace to the sidewalks outside Cracking and crumbling as they collide They had a good life, supporting us all But even the strongest foundation can fall Saying my goodbyes, paying my respects Going back along the split concrete Thinking of past memories, dragging my feet That’s when I tripped, on that same sidewalk On which I paid tribute exchanging sad talk I caught myself with my hands, hearing a crack and a twist Just like the sidewalk that fractured my wrist

Broken Sidewalk
Rest in peace to the sidewalks outside Cracking and crumbling as they collide They had a good life, supporting us all But even the strongest foundation can fall Saying my goodbyes, paying my respects Going back along the split concrete Thinking of past memories, dragging my feet That’s when I tripped, on that same sidewalk On which I paid tribute exchanging sad talk I caught myself with my hands, hearing a crack and a twist Just like the sidewalk that fractured my wrist
