Go Away by Phillip Caine, "Sh0rtzckt"

My heart ripped open, My face in tears,

I cross the street, feeling no fears.

I see the ground, holding city lights,

A man ask's me, "Do you have a light?"

I want to go home now. To rest my head

My throat hurts and im ready for bed

The sun has gone down I need to make a

call. But the phones are ripped, and

torn from the wall.

Continue walking, I know I must.

Beautiful Women I see, yet feeling no lust.

I keep walking along, and feeling insane,

while the homeless ask me, Do you have any

change To catch a bus, Escape the Hell,

It's nightime, Im on 7th and L My heart's

walks on to K street mall damn it! damn

it! I need to make a call I need a ride

to go back home and continue being all

alone.

A nice sunny day, is nearly at end.

I ask if she, will talk to a friend.

I asked my love, "Any chance for us?"

"No." , she said "I have to go."

She sits beside me at her victorian place

the tears running only on, my face.

The pain went through me I felt it's thrust

I now know, it's over There's no more "Us."

Why did I come here I wasted my day

The girl that I love Told me "go away."
