Knock Loud

Knock loud, I'm home

Just sleeping to pass the time

Wondering if you'll come by to visit me

Ten years have passed

Since you walked out of my life

But late last night in the pharmacy

You were in the line in front of me

So I ran away to hide

Knock loud I'm home

I wrote in black felt pen

Took that sign and taped it to the door

If you come in

To see how I have been

Make sure the door is closed behind you

Stand above me

While I poised do plunge

Through my heart attack

Kills the worst of me

Said I was sorry

Drink to forget

I wake up alone

Knock loud I'm home
