And then you’re older and people start owing you
Or you owe them but can’t repay because that’s what living is
And there’s no way around the fact that you hated her once
And it was the wrong thing to do but you cannot help it either
It is way too late now in this summer of bad news and now
Love hoboes pass the house as the moon passes the sun
And red paint rises against the sides of your boat so
You’ll get stupidity for your birthday and you go to bed hungry
To sleep with stars to solve issues before falling asleep
To cry no more to forget the morrow to prepare for help.
