“The Last Lie I Told” - Saves the Day
I’m in a parking lot by myself. It’s a quarter ‘til nine, and I’ve been here since 5:45. Oh, there’s no one, but I can see some flickering lights. I can hear some dogs barking in the backyards, and I smell gasoline. I wish the sky were open because if there weren’t those trees, I think I could see for miles. The city is just beyond those clouds. I guess this is what it’s like to be really down and holding out for something. Remembering the warmer nights. Remembering the open arms of two years ago. Oh, there’s nothing like this parking lot and seeing the stars in morning. Because I can see them from where I’m lying. I can feel the cold pavement against my skin. It’s tingling.
