The Comeback
Back erect
As I walk down the road
Face straight forward
Ground riddled with excrement and glass
Weary
Actually put on socks today
The sun shines on my eyes
I don’t use my hand to block it
Didn’t go blind like I thought I might
No objective
Fantastic
Gives me a chance to climb the stairs
Flight five
Man am I out of shape
Good vibes don’t come easily
You have to climb the stairs to save them
Store your good vibes for the next day
To take the stairs again
It’s no fun staring at the excrement and glass
You must climb the stairs
If you want to wake up whole again.
