I walk down this street
Tar melting
A lilly yawns as I set down my bags and sit on the freezing curb
The sky opens up and the moon takes a breath of fresh air
I look up as the purple hue takes me over
Realization of my life
The ground opens up and the devil singes the stars
A crystal clear tear strips the dirt from my face as it slowly runs down my cheek
Realization of my life
A star falls down next to me and I pick it up
It burns the skin from my hand
I place it in my pocket
My gift from above
Realization of my life

"...A star falls down next to me and I pick it up

I like the fact that you still put the burning star into your pocket.

A realization of my life...
