Set foot, back in my hometown,
Anxiety lifts from my weary shoulders.
Nine hours on a train,
Nine hours to contemplate.
Am I going home,
Or am I leaving?
I walk to town,
Under the florescent glow,
Of the streetlights.
‘Cause the sun,
Wants to shine on you,
That’s okay.
The sky glows grey,
With the sun’s last rays.
And the streets,
Are all empty.
As I meander
Through the alleys.
“You just want,
To get out,
When you’ve been here,
Your whole life.”
He says to me,
I agree.
I hang my head,
I couldn’t find Dylan.
But there Was Aaron.
I listened while he sang,
In a hoarse, almost whisper.
That rose to a yell.
I want to go home.
To go to her,
And fall into those,
Outstretched arms.
-Meh...I kind of lost my vigor towards the end. I might come back and re-write the last two verses of it. I like the rest a lot though.
