Remember that apartment that you had down the sidewalks of shattered glass through the paths of piles of trash past the syringes and empty masks you said that you weren’t afraid to walk used car alarms to to wake you up and airplanes to get you back you still wonder about the stains on the subway tracks no one wanted you there why didn’t you care darling you’re not going away you’re not going away no matter what your parents say no you’re not going away I saw you at beach down by the bay you had just swallowed the key to the safe you were trying to buy a map for the maze you were waiting for an earthquake to grab you by the shoulders and shake saying one of these days babe one of these days well one of these days babe one of these days one of these days babe one of these days and I won’t forget you’re there and I won’t forget you’re scared aren’t you but it’s not going away no it’s not going away no matter what your parents say no it’s not going away now you slowly watch your hair turn grey down at the lake watching the fireworks display constellations in the shape of a face sunflowers in a silver vase but the stars won’t bring you luck this time because they think that you gave up are they right
