Violet

Sometimes I ask why, can we ever atone, your eyes on fire, it's just a shame, lights burn better alone, turn on each new day, not the same at night, where the wind runs cold, aches for another time, kidsndogs bear our name, we no longer get stoned, just try to keep sane, when you hear me cry, please put down the phone, it's not enough to sigh, buy some shiny nails, help out with the loans, a house is not a jail, brighten up our home.
