The night is full of lonely people With whiskey on their breath And pain in their hearts Watching the world pass by With glassy eyes

Lonely People
If the Sun Were the size of a basketball Sitting in L.A The next closest Nuclear furnace Would be half a world away, In Santiago, Chile. Leagues of empty space, Blackened cosmos. Like droplets of rain, Floating in an aetherous cloud. We stare out of our bubble and wonder What is there to be found? If we are destined to empty space, Falling upon empty planets around empty stars, We are a singular flame In a forest of midnight That cannot be put out.

Sea of Tranquility
Driving down an empty street Full of flashing lights Blasting country from the speakers And driving way too slow. Uncertainty in the mind As hands steer, misguided, Diamonds cutting at the corners As the heart feels crouched inside. ...I have never felt so alone.
