Waiting on a Connection

Cut the cake and drop the fine

I've seen good friends go down the line

This part of town where the sun don't shine

Always on the connection

This wind blows cold inside the flats

The screams start up like howling cats

Righted when I kick up dust

Be there on the connection

Could spend your life while spend the cash

Sell your soul or just your ass

Beat the boredom by beating someone

Either way you'll just be waiting on the connection

Seen all sights and they see mine

Counting seconds - I've done my time

Now I'm due out - They do ... divine

I'm trying to make the connection

If all this were fair - and justice true

I'd drink a toast - to me and you

As it is I'll just drink to forget

I tried to make the connection

You can kill the spirit but not the soul

Kill the poet and hope that goes

As lies are lies - I've lived and died

Either way I'm waiting on a connection

Soon in the bed - gonna rest - unrest

Sooner you give ....... I'll still be here when push comes to shove

Waiting on a connection!
