The streets were bustling in the afternoon
As the constant buzzing embraced me
Whether I played under the sun or moon
Or near the station or a shade tree
Strumming through glasses and silver spoons
Or loose trash and crumbling walls
I sang around a hundred tunes
Barely acknowledged at all
Then after a while, the noise subsided
Leaving my chords to be carried by the wind
And cut through the park with the gilded leaves
Chill relieves
Reaching a few curious ears
Synchronizing the melody
Everywhere
Later night time came and the signs were lit
Could have been a street or a small square
A concrete stage, with a different beat
Blurry faces with no attention to spare
Finding it hard to play with cold fingers
Stomping my feet on the filthy ground
Trying to resist as the discomfort lingers
Hoping the sound keeps my mind bound
As I was about to go, the noise subsided
Leaving the rhythm to echo over
And expand in a vibrating effortless weave
Chill upheave
Reaching a few tired ears
Synchronizing the harmony
Anywhere
