I thrive inside the silver-lining spark
The modern-minded heart apart
From the God-fearing friends and families
I’ve lately found myself fiercely battling
There are lively Trump/Pence protests
From the young boiled blood on the left
On the edge of downtown, blocking 4th south
On the bus to work I can hear them shout
They’re gonna die down in the following months
You’ve done all you can if you’ve done it at least once
I’m on the blue line after closing
My co-worker’s reading across from me
There’s a woman in the corner
And a man coming towards her
She’s buttoned up all over, by herself
He doesn’t want to anybody else
She seems polite from afar
Looking for a way to the back car
This ought to just die, but he won’t let it
She’s doing fine on her own, but I almost want to step in
I’m off the streetcar on fifth east
My place is just between 21st and 17th
It’s really dark from the station to my house
I never know what trouble could be around
I never have a problem, I still worry
To the residents watching, I’m always in a hurry
By the time I’m by St. Joseph’s, I can breathe
There’s no urgency at my door, fumbling with my keys
And I say hello to my uncle aunt, if they’re awake
I’ve got to be at work in the morning around eight.
