Two Up Too Down

your eyes sink

lips hang

as you blow in the breeze

I stand to catch you

but refuse to fall

on your humility

we are not swimming

we are diving

we are rolling

we’re drowning in this

no point in hoping or believing

that the shoe that you found

does not fit

we are two up too down

in this little town

we used to think of as home

two up too down

you’re not around

I still think of you at home

your dance music

just fills up the room

and covers the walls

you couldn’t dance

if you tried

if you liked

you’d just stumble and fall

this is not living

it’s not dying

it’s just waiting

you’re just fading away

you said it’s over

it’s over

it’s over

even your tears are grey

we are two up too down

in this little town

we used to think of as home

two up too down

you’re not around

I still think of you at home
