lyrics

Between the darkness and daylight
Caught in the trapping of mid-afternoon
Tearing at the ankle bone
Down a dark alley, flickering lights lead me toward my home.

Between the woman and her man
Dies the right to piss where you stand
True colors that were shown
When they boarded up all the open doors leading to their home.

Between the church and what’s at stake
A leather-bound antidote saves
The fire from its flame
It’s a fantasy, she tried to believe, “oh, to be called home.”

Between the sickness and the saint
lie the rest of us who lie awake
Equal rights evaporate
Primal prose propels outdated ideas into our home.

Between the mother and her child
An unending war, existing long before her mother was born
Lady Liberty is cold.
All the protest signs on the overpass let her know
You are not alone, as you March the Parkway you are home.

Between you and me
I feel overlooked,
disgusted, but still I’m overjoyed
At the thought of living
Oh, the sunlight, the sea & all things in between
The morning coffee & the daily routine.
Though I know we’re so recklessly ruining everything.
I know I am not alone.

Night Windows New Jersey

Where do I go from here? Everyone is getting older. I’m losing people both to death and life. I’ve written about the sadness that comes with the gift of life, but never like this. This time, I leaned as hard into the sadness as necessary in order to feel better.
