Metric Bleachers
November 13, 2014
Standing in a room
With religion above me
And alcohol at my feet
Swirls of pink and blue light
Get in my throat and eyes
The bass pounds in my chest
Replacing the beat of my heart
And the saxophone rings in my head
But all I can think about
Is how you stood behind me
With your arms around my shoulders
And whispered in my ear
Here once before
