Siren from Positive People by Positive People

Siren

Sirens here and over there.
Sirens sound off everywhere.
On open streets from in the park.
Sirens scream most after dark.

Nice to hear you friend. What’s that sound?
It’s that stupid siren coming ‘round.
What’d you say? I can’t hear you.
A siren’s screaming somewhere near you.

Emergency on every corner.
Fancy homes hide social disorder.
Sirens in this recorded song.
Sirens yelling all day long.

I track a siren from east to west.
Random assault’s my second guess.

I can hear them in my dreams.

The crows are flying overhead.
Siren below. Wednesday. Second dead.
As car horns sing an angry song,
siren arrives, 80 seconds long.

A guy turns left, tailing yellow to red.
Siren pulls up. One bandaged head.

Look in my eyes. There’s a siren in there.
I’m floundering about and pulling my hair.

I can hear them in my dreams.
