Contrast And Compare

Contrast and compare
Between the busy ones
And the ones that dont care
Until there is no one
That you really know
So I drift through these days
Of appointments and promises made
They will all end up broken
And quickly replaced

Weeks are slow, days drag on
Even practice and parties seem long
But I found myself going
I guess theres nothing to do
Oh well
Group of kids, line of cars
More will show up after the bars close
Theres this boredom that drowns everything
Bottles break, music plays
Conversations competing for space
I look for a corner or a quieter room

Theres no heat in this house
I cant breath with these words in my mouth
But Im not going to say them
Yeah, Ive made that mistake before
On the stairs, she grabs my arm
Says, "Whats up, where you been
Is something wrong?"
I try to just smile
And say, "Everythings fine"
