wet cement - sixty stories lyrics

Loading...

this is the story at the crosswalk: the cars drive right up on my shoes.
these days bad days are common. the city is changing.
a jackhammer bounces off the walls and bounces back to me in stereo.

the sidewalk is fresh, the cement shines.
i write your name next to mine.

bridges take years to build but they begin to fall apart with a few days of heavy traffic.
i like tall buildings, but it’s disconcerting when they grow up in groups, dies in the centre.

the sidewalk is fresh, the cement shines.
i write your name next to mine.

the city strikes. the garbage lines up.
bags bloat all night, bloom when the sun comes up.
i make a fist and punch the crosswalk pole–the cars stop.

i reach the sidewalk with an expected sense of relief from dodging cars and kicking cartons.
i have faith in some things, like the constant ringing in my ears,
still, i think good days are coming.

the city is changing, the cement shines.
i write your name next to mine.
