Fire Escape

The other day on the fire escape When the outside world was too much to take Staying up for the sunrise Pastel hues on the distant skyline Walking down our old avenue The murals changed and so have you Avoiding trash on the sidewalk Humming songs while I find a train stop And underground on the JMZ Where subway rats run behind beams I remember something you told me That nothing worth it is ever easy I brought you into my daydream But wasn't ready for you to wake me
