F-train

David Usher

(Just one sec)

(Lavalamps are good)



Traveled on the f train down

The people press and crowd

They start to fade like footprints worn away

Only stop and still I'm waiting

A thousand faces look the same everyone

A thousand different names

They come on two by two

People fade as people do

Came here of my own volition

Could be my decision

Could be

We may still get by

We may still get by



Wandered down on avenue A

The coffee shops the sweet cache

Of thoughts and words and laughter gone

Never ending stream of what you've

Known so long and long ignored

Don't think so hard just smoke your cigarette

And fade off into blue

'Cause people fade as people always do



Consequence comes crashing in

The scars and scrapes and scratches

All the memories died so long ago

Time is up but still I'm waiting

Come here of my own volition

Could be my decision

Could be

We may still get by

We may still get by

And we may still get by

We may still get by

We may still get by
