Sober as October

my eyes found you

standing there across the tracks

waiting

beauty in your uncertain stance

waiting for something

so I called your name

took you back to my place

thought I could show you

what it feels like to be loved

hoping for fireworks

but all I got were sparks

extinguished by Stella Artois

and your lackluster words

feelings fading fast

my eyes found you

standing there across the tracks

when I called your name

you seemed unfazed

I was not the something

you were waiting for

guess we can still be friends
