A Golden Exit - The Good Life

I can see the chill in the air between us

I can feel a winter coming we’re frozen in our stares

And we know there’s a world outside

Of these insults and injuries

Maybe we’re just too, afraid to be one

The autumn sets a golden exit the winter is waxing

That cold sun will shed no more warmth into our living rooms

Where we dream our dreams, where we wait for sleep

Maybe we’ll wake up with golden wings

And fly over a city screaming, take me take me!

I woke up this morning to the silence of falling snow

These graces of beauty have left me so cold

I once had a heart, but hearts are like snowflakes

And snowflakes.

one warm touch and they melt away

Maybe we’ll get wings.

maybe anything

Just anything to set us free.

maybe we’ll wake up

A golden exit.

must we always wait for sleep?
