Playing Cards

by Absinth Eyes   Sep 26, 2008


Hello city
A whole new way of living
Like strong whiskey
Eurphoric craziness
An overnight trip
Gloom lasting until mid-morning

I could see what was on people's minds
Their hidden bodies
Delighted by hard drinking

If I would be willing
To sell my heart
I could buy you
A cure for the glooms

Sneaking back much too quickly
The night cold seemed heavy
Colder than the actual temperature
Sapped my strength away

Everyone shuffles around drinking
Their most important freedom
And after dark we all lay
Inside a light
Foreign creatures
The last people to kiss

Goodbye dream.

[Viva College.]
