On the Roof

Blank-faced,

Was this what our elders taught?

Dim the lights and live like story book.

I can't focus for the pinball.

I'm all shook up and

I think I see it all.

But I know that it ain't that simple.

I got loose.

Up on the roof.

Waiting for you.

Two-faced,

Was this was out elders taught?

We're human too, indulge in small talk.

I take a walk down the alley.

Some drunk half-kills me.

We're fighting on the floor for a ha'penny

I got loose.

Up on the roof.

Waiting for you.

Well, I guess

I'm waiting for the punchline.

I'm a refugee with a rare find.

I've got a place where

I can unwind.

I got loose.

Up on the roof.

Waiting for you.

We'll hide
