I Didn’t Get Where I Am Today

I Didn’t Get Where I Am Today

I didn’t get where I am today
I stayed home, snowed in
I didn’t get where I am today
I cried off, I phoned in
Some days the faith eludes you
Some days the reason why is silent on the riverbed
Hangs deathly in the sky
My dreams are tortured silhouettes
My hands are ribbon sliced
The only light’s a cigarette
The bed feels cold as ice
