Year: 1998
It's a one time thing
It just happens a lot
Walk with me and we will see
What we have got
My footsteps are ticking
Like water dripping from a tree
Walking a hairline
And stepping very carefully
My heart is broken
It's worn out at the knees
Hearing muffled, seeing blind
Soon it will hit the deep freeze
And something is cracking
I don't know where
Ice on the sidewalk
Brittle branches in the air
The sun is blinding
Dizzy golden, dancing green
Through the park in the afternoon
Wondering where the hell I have been?
