THE SIGNS Sept. 14/06 Karl Rigelhof

Walking in the dark down a country lane
Firefly/ies spark(s) after a misty rain
Listening to (the) tunes on my (i)POD
Thinking to myself, oh my God

What have I done
Or didn't/(failded to) do
To deserve this
How did I miss
(To see) the signs

Where do I belong
Where should I go
Where/when/how did it go wrong
(How) should (<->) I know

Running/walking through the glare of the city/ies street(s)
People stop and stare but they never meet
The look in my eye(s) reflecting/s (the) neon
(The) tears (that) I cry will soon be gone

Strolling past the homes on/of my/a suburb road
Feeling all alone bearing/s a heavy load
See(ing) the (neighbo(u)rs/hood) children play(ing) in the(ir)/neighbours yard(s)
Try(ing) not to think (about/but) it('s) just too hard
