lyrics

The only sign of life today: a screen door slam a mile away. Dead spots on the back lawn, a brown and goldfish pond. Beyond the whitewashed boundary fence, I make up stories, make no sense. A thousand yards on high, breeze and braches battle cry. And I might’ve already been bored. The neighbors’ kids all grown and gone, the dog barks echo far and long. The cars and houses empty and all the windows bright. Between the blinding yellow-white of the aluminum side and sun-bleached pock marks of the old cement drive, a flower garden barely grows in a one-by-four foot row. Pruned and plucked and just for show, a pretty space I’d come to know. But I was already bored.
