The lane next over is always faster
|
And you wait so long until you're so bothered
|
But right after you complete your merge
|
The lane you started in gets going
|
And while you wait for your luck to change
|
All you can think of is where you started
|
|
You don't like anything on local radio
|
So you fumble around 'til you land on NPR
|
And listen to world news
|
Well, a bomb went off in the parking lot
|
Of a newly opened sunni marketplace
|
And a cloud covers your car at just the right time
|
For you to see the dark on your face in the mirror
|
|
Your phone goes off with a picture of your mother
|
It's five to six, and she can't find your brother
|
And while normally you'd yell and scream,
|
Instructing her to go and find him on her own
|
But calmly you're exiting,
|
And telling her that you are headed on your way home
|
She does not know what to say,
|
Just glad you're on your way home
|
You turn off your phone in a different tone
|
As you think,
|
The bad feeling so bad makes the good so good
|
