nighthawks from toy tunes by Lily Porter Wright

I’m turning it over and over in my mind
making the connections that I couldnt make that night
I won’t answer when you call anymore
I’ll be out walking

we had a party at home
making some connections with the girls who live next door
I don’t think I want to see them anymore
but I don’t mind if you keep talking

you stand in the road, everything is rising smoke
I wish I’d been harder on you the last time we spoke
and I don’t know where to go that doesnt make me want to go home

I wash it down with a drink and turn on the light
finding the peace of mind I sacrificed that night, the heat turns on,
it clicks the room into place, I hear you moving in the dark
your phone is ringing

I think I hear a car crash in the street
You always said I shouldn’t put myself in their seats-- like an ambulance
the fear comes through the walls, and you’re fighting on your call
I hope you’re winning

they’re plowing the roads, everything is rising snow
I wish you’d been more gentle with me the last time we spoke
and I don’t know where to go that doesn’t make me wanna move on
