Kristen edits fiction and poetry
She plans to write a novel eventually
Stares at an empty page
Walter has a daughter in Tennessee
He knows he ought to call her eventually
Waits for a better day
Sweep your troubles to the corner
Ignore them until they grow enormous
Kristen looks at pictures from Myrtle Beach
She prays she will forget her eventually
Softly she whispers her name
Walter buys a bottle of Jim Beam
He claims he'll break the habit eventually
Waits for a better day
Sweep your troubles to the corner
Ignore them until they grow enormous
Restless and alone
4AM, The clock offers its toll
Sweep your troubles to the corner
Ignore them until they grow enormous
Sweep your troubles to the corner
Ignore them until they grow enormous
Kristen calls Walter from Tennessee
He promises he'll visit eventually
