| I'm alone
sitting with my empty glass
my four walls
follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
and you were waiting there
swimming through apologies
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
riding on the Metro
You wore white
smiling as you took my hand
so removed
we spoke of wintertime in France
minutes passed with shallow words
years have passed and still they hurt
I can see you now
smiling as I pulled away
I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
"I'll love you always" filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the Seine
riding on the Metro
I remember a feeling coming over me
the soldier turned, then looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
riding on the Metro |

| The infection is spreading on my hand, it really hurts. The doctor said the antibiotics will take some time to work. I just hope they work soon. My court day is tomorrow, I'm so nervous, I may be going go jail for a very long time. My lawyer is pretty sure he can get me off on lesser chargers but I don't see how, the case looks pretty open and shut to me. It wouldn't look so bad if my wife didn't try to destroy the evidence without telling me, how convenient that she turns up missing last week. She's probably back in Cancun. The next time I see her it'd better be to identify a body. |

| The doctors were able to successfully reattach my thumb but they don't know if I'll ever get full use or any use at all out of it. Physical therapy has been going well but it's still taking some getting used to writing left handed. I think my wife has been cheating on me while I've been in the hospital, I think I will confront her about it next time I see her.

| How could you settle for a boy like me,
When all I could see was the end of the week...
All the things we sign,
And the things we buy,
Aint gonna keep us together...
Its just a matter of time.

| Yeah, it's fine
We'll walk down the line
Leave our rain and cold
Trade for warm sunshine
You my friend
I will defend
And if we change
Well I love you anyway |
