Infinity

Infinity

The hungry hate
Never ever sleeps
Around the gates of nevermore
As the past comes around
And grabs you
Throws you down
Onto the floor
With the morning’s trash
Staring through alien eyes
That you bought on the corner market
From the guy with the little twitch
He’s working on a stitch in time
The race between the angel and devil
A sack of virtue in your hand
It spills out and leaves you
Try to close the door
And keep it all in
Safe and sound
My very special one
Loves to sleep the day away
Just like in the movies
Cocktails and cigarettes
I wish you would stay
If you want
I know I never said it before
But, I’m saying it now
Spend the night, once more
Before they close the door
And chase all the cockroaches away
To their homes and children
Bragging about their day
Braving the cold winter
Pushing and shoving
Breaking the seal
Letting all the demons out
Upstairs in a lonely room
With only a space heater
Keeping the blues away
With a bottle of Kessler’s
Listening to infinity’s call
