Riding my bike under the Mass Ave. Bridge and I'm staring at the
Página 5 / 12
cityscape.
Seems like forever since we started this adventure and the days are
getting shorter again. And so we ride, ride right over the wate,
though
some days I think I'd rather jump in. Below the buildings, they
surround me
like a blanket, and I wonder what is keeping me here.

Looking out and looking up for an answer but still nobody's making
any
sense. Finding quiet in the city's like a treasure and I never would
have
expected it here. They say eight stars are all you get, and I don't
want to
make the same mistake. Sometimes I wish this all would burn to the
ground and we'd have to start all over again.
