Green decay

in your old eyes

too much sugar in your blood

  Blah blah blah

    Life goes on

but the rain doesn't 

oh it stop and starts

  You can hear the sirens

   the sound of someone coughing downstairs 

   You light a cigarette 

   And think

 you need to quit

   or at least slow down 

and then you wonder

  why that young redhead showed you her legs

  her lips were red too
