The Street Corner

You know what I'm talking about... even if you think you don't.

You hear what I hear

You see what I see

You taste what I taste

Who are you? You're me

You stand on a corner

I stand on another

We might be the same

But I'll be some other

The money is right

You flag who you see

I do the same now

But it's not who I'll be

You think I will stay

I don't have a plan

I'm just biding my time

Take the step when I can

What's holding me back?

Part of me is you

I am tearing it out

But till then I will do

what I have been taught

to make it somehow

Passing the days

The time is not now

That moment will come

That day will dawn

You're still on the corner

And me? I am gone.
