Sanctuary

That place that wreaks havoc cigarette boxes lying on the floor Drowning in angst - your place call it home, call it sanctuary Call it whatever - tell it to the bartender Who's pouring another whiskey in your honor You're the one that's on top tonight - lovin' life With your ripped denim jeans and smoke-stained leather Pour me another! you say so you could get back on The motorcycle to heaven and never slow down

I can feel the loneliness and suffering in this. Even if they are the person of the hour at the bar, it doesn't make any difference for even in a crowded club they still feel alone, Nicely done Trisha.

One man's idea of sanctuary, cleverly construed. The image of the biker comes through loud and clear! BRAVO Trisha! Best wishes, Keith 7

Thank you very much. But it's not necessarily about a male biker, it can be about a troubled female biker as well.
