Saw the birds outside my house and I
Crept behind the window pane
It was - six o'clock and no one came
And I - cleaned the kitchen and wrote my name
It was time to go and I was alone
No stars revealed by the night sky
Fifteen minutes til the end of the line
Praying someone will say I'm fine
My fingers find the piano keys
Sticky juice and jelly prints
I play a song a knew a long time ago
Stumble through to the end of the page
Remembering the rest in the middle
Remembering the accidental sharps
Talk to myself in a foggy brain freeze
Talk to myself and we depart.
