letra de breaking through thin ice - david g harrington

Loading...

v1
ice, ice long ago melted
rye watered down and warm
empty bed left unmade
disheveled and forlorn
fragments of light flash now
from orange neon signs
teasing “come on in
open all night”

v2
the ashtray overflows by
an old half-full pizza box
stale air hangs within a
provocative paradox
radio static buzzes
by the old corner tv
and the infomercials play
muted on the screen

l
as she drifts off in an
all too familiar dream

c
breaking through thin ice
slipping off trails
falling off steep cliffs
touching third rails
walking through, walking through, walking through
repeated fails…
breaking through thin ice
slipping off trails
falling off steep cliffs
touching third rails
searching for, searching for, searching for
calmer seas to sail…

v3
a thin grey tabby cat
climbs up into her lap
l!cks the grease from her hands
hardships and handicaps
and fighting breaks out now
on the corner below
and she stirs awake but
her eyes stay closed

l
and she tunes out all the noise
not wanting to know

c
breaking through thin ice
slipping off trails
falling off steep cliffs
touching third rails
walking through, walking through, walking through
repeated fails…
breaking through thin ice
slipping off trails
falling off steep cliffs
touching third rails
searching for, searching for, searching for
calmer seas to sail…
