Lights gone dim on Mainstreet

Summary:
When we lose are way we lose it all

I see you      
you see me      
we see nothing at all      
hand in hand
we walk into our willing blindness    
I speak      
you speak      
we don’t understand any of the words      
tongue on tongue tied into a tight knot      
you listen      
I listen      
the noise is so loud we can’t hear      
the lights have gone dim on main street      
avenue empty and cold      
we keep waiting for just a flicker      
its dark and the storefronts are closed      
I hurt you      
you hurt me      
for the gold in our teeth      
can’t we leave it alone      
I swing      
you swing      
solving nothing at all      
my blood your blood flowing and ready to clot      
I cry      
you cry      
street sweepers have swept      
lights have gone dim on main street      
what’s been torn remains torn      
kept waiting for a chance at a glimmer

couldn’t pay the bill    
we turned the light switch off
