Fireworks

One morning this sadness will fossilize
And I will forget how to cry
I'll keep going to work and you won't see a change
Save perhaps a slight gray in my eye
I will go jogging routinely
Calmly and rhythmically
Run
And when I find that a knife's sticking out of my side
I'll pull it out without questioning why
And then one warm summer night
I'll hear fireworks outside
And I'll listen
To the memories as they
Cry cry cry
I will be married to silence
The gentleman won't say a word
But you know oh you know in the quiet he holds
Runs a river that will never find home
And then one warm summer night
I'll hear fireworks outside
And I'll listen
To the memories as they
Cry cry cry
Oh one warm summer night
I'll hear fireworks outside
And I'll listen
To the memories as they
Cry cry cry
Cry cry cry
Cry cry cry
