He was more permanent than other men,
A little more friendly -
And it don’t make no difference.
I ain’t wanted.
Why ain’t you wanted?
I don’t know.
You think it’s a lie.
You won’t get out.
But it ain’t no lie.
He cried.
Lost his smile.
Helplessly broken.
I seen things out here.
Alone out here at night.
I don’t know if I was asleep.
It’s just in their head.
Yeah… sometimes.
But… not always.
You’re nuts.
You’re crazy.
We are too.
