Teardrops

The setting sun
Streaming through smeared windshield
Not quite home
Feeling low and unreal
Breathe in deep
Open your eyes
Slam into brake lights
That’s when you realize
You are not alone
Teardrops fall from your eyes
Flesh and blood and bone
Oh
Sitting up
In a daze, uneasy
Flashing lights
Plastic cuffs
Still breathing
Having to admit you made
Another mistake
That’s when you realize
You are not alone
Teardrops fall from your eyes
Flesh and blood and bone
Teardrops fall from your eyes
That’s when you realize
