Knees bruised
Running through black spruce
The air like a cold noose
Hear the beasts overhead
Takes a long time
To run in a straight line
Part the clouds of a dark mind
Autumn hills burn auburn red
After all the ground you’ve won
And all was said and done
Much more was said than done
Day falls
On a phone full of missed calls
You fumble for the wherewithal
To find your way home
Knocked out
Lost the keys and you’re locked out
Spent a lifetime trying to figure out
How to leave yourself alone
After all the ground you’ve won
And all was said and done
Much more was said than done
When you’ve had enough
It’s never enough
