Why so thin? They ask
Eat a sandwich. They say
Dont worry I ate a
Detective sandwich for breakfast
Coffee, cigarettes, coffee
I cant sit still
Why would I want to
I keep pacing these same few steps
Hoping to make the rut at least
Six feet deep
Just wanna be out of sight
For a while
So I'll turn sideways
And let the wind do the talking
Breeze please carry me far far away
But my feet remain tethered
To the terra firma
Fermenting in my own juices
Even without amphetamine abuse
I feel useless
Stick thin and oh so frail
I carry the weight of the world
Like water in a pail
So pale, need vitamin D
But it's in the moonlight
Which I feel free
