i used to be bigger than this -
really
i was high flying high ballin'
in a high powered car

used to roll down the streets
glasses low hair gelled music on the stereo
hey baby - want a ride?

walking through the streets like twas nothing
i owned these people, these streets
mister - shine your shoes? mister - that drinks on the house
that drinks on me - mister

easy breazin easy ridin
the days and nights away
long gone now
no power no people no friends
as if they were ever

just me and this room
this cold dark room
with the roaches and the rats
and the screaming next door - christ, will you ever shut up?
no momma here no, boy
just you and me and everyone else

only time can tell

Seeing red

We agreed, we decided - we made contract to leave at 6pm, because Coldplay is playing at 8pm and I want to be there early. Doors open at 7pm. But N isn't here yet. I am about to see red.
