Now that breakfast is over between us
Would you care to join me for a walk
It can just be a circle ‘round Elmwood and
There can be as much talk as you want
Really it’s up to you the topics we stumble by
Men in your past or the one walking on the path
Next to you listening and yes I’ll be listening
Intently to words on whatever you want
It’s your life, you can live it in selfish amusement
Without making eye contact and interrupting
My time is all given to you, I don’t care
I don’t expect questions on what I’ve been doing
Time is constructed, we’re wasting away
Yeah that’s fine and I get that but one of these days
It will be clear that others exist
When your loved ones say
Your compaints stop making sense
Time is constructed, we’re wasting away
Yeah that’s great and I get that but one of these days
It will be clear that others exist
When your loved ones say your complaints
Stop making sense
Now our feet hurt and we’ve done six laps
Our food is digested, at this point I laugh and say
What do you think you’ll do with your life
Do you think you’ll produce lots of art with a price tag
You dodge the questions and throw it back at me
I get all flustered, lose grip of my thoughts
And what comes out is simply. I wanna be happy
And right after hearing this, you’re quick to mock
I wanna be happy, you say back to me,
With your hurtful but spot on and honestly
All around great imitation of me
I take it as nothing more than you projecting
You say, it’s not that, that I have no original thought
And the tone that I speak with is grating
Now we’re both on butts in the grass
And I think of the green stains rubbed on my kneecaps
We’re sitting cross-legged
Like when we were kids
Criss Cross Applesauce was a moment,
A bit of our lives
And we’ve known one another for years
We’ve both grown together, developed identities, fears
Understood what we like and we hate
We’ve built up our preferences, talents
And gone on more dates
Than I’m comfortable tallying up now
If I did then I’d be here for, dammit, I don’t know how long
You need time and I can’t disagree
It’s nobody's fault, now let’s hug and agree not to speak
Anymore since for me it is tough
To say bye to someone and then still keep in touch
Even though at one point in the past we were close
Like so close that it hurt but now that’s up in smoke
Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke
Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, plumes of pure billowing
Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, plumes of pure billowing
Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, plumes of pure billowing
Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, plumes of pure billowing smoke
