         Easy and light the days flow a bit smoother.
            will I finally win out to some other side?
         Beyond Rose and our years … my insecurities and fears
            Ah, no … but I run to other tunes, as well.

         Got those freight train blues running thru
         aching me, … breaking me …
         all my dreams … all my reasoning
         have brought me here again
         the evening waits like a wound
         and I’m so afraid I’ll fall in
         Reality’s so thin … just behind our running
         just behind our lovers and our jobs
         waits the empty time …
         waits the accountings and the ownings
         and no matter how I try
         to stay on the easy side of it
         it tears … it tears and takes me in.

                  Woke up from some rainy dream
                     Rose and I parting, again, it seems
                  so casual and callous, she, to me
                     and then, as I leave…tears
                  but, when I did leave it was again
                     amid anger and that sour feeling inside
                        that dies so poorly there.
                  I can’t understand or reach her
                     she seems to care at times
                  and to be bent on inconsideration
                     all the rest.
