How Thin
You walk the walk today, you talk the talk
You feel the bitterness that surrounds the art
You hear the tenderness in which they harm, and dance along the dance
You smile at their smile
They feed upon your dreams, they warm to your skin
Another round has come; the same people have won
The air got all dry when you slit out that sigh
And wandered off alone cause you couldn't get high
You realize how thin a string can be
Your heart is racing knowing all its goals
Take in the moment; be on your own
Mind your feet and tamp down their lies
Spring for the moments that make us alive
I realize how thin a string can be
