The Weight

Now I'm facing it
At Carol's apartment
My ass flat upon the frame
Mind doing something
Waiting, looking, spitting
Image, cars, and heat

Casey got beat
While out with Tessa
I heard days later
When we reconvened
And Suz was followed
That same week

And Casey and Tessa
Still can't sleep
Hammer and screw
Some guy yells "Faggot"
He drives off gnawing
Flexing his cheeks

Still can't sleep
Try to move what's left of me
Try to move what's left of me
Try to move, try to move
What's left to follow
Try to move what's left of me
What's left to follow

Suz left the tool shop
Before she finished
And called my phone
Once she was relieved
