Four Score and Seven Miles
Brandon Charity 2/4/97

Another day he spends alone
with only her voice over the telephone
Another hour spent lying on his bed
surrounded by walls so red
And he sits there and watches the sun set & rise
hoping she'll be there when he opens his eyes
The drag of the day is of timeless appeal
too young, old and all of it is always real
So he sits with his back to the red bleeding wall
four score and seven miles between it all.
