What
(专辑: Hit Your Head - 2015)
Left the
workplace in a
hurry You'd received a
call shortly before lunch and you seemed nervous after You left food in the
break room refrigerator is very out of character You proceeded to speed down 787 which is not at all out of character But when you arrive home you decided to keep the
car rolling You parked in the
supermarket parking lot a
few blocks away and listened to public radio The
station was doing a
fun-drive and it was annoying There was snow on the
ground, but it was about a
week old And in upstate New York, that makes the
snow the
same colour as the
shitty, winter sky Things were really bleak The
heat in your car makes your lips dry, so you go into a
supermarket It's a
low end grocery store and the
shelves are poorly stocked All the
packaged food was unhealthy and all the
fruit looks bad You walk around for almost 10 minutes looking for an avocado Before you realise this market doesn't carry avocados You settle for a
packet of corn chips and a
can of chili Then you realise you needed a
can opener It's ok, you needed one for the
house anyway In the
checkout line you listen to a
couple talk about their child Like he's a
termite infestation They seem to wanna go home even less than you do You left your car in the
lot and walk to the
park It's mostly homeless people But one mother is trying to get her child to enjoy the
terrible snow You feel embarrassed opening the
can of chili But then realise the
company you're in and decide it doesn't matter After you dump your chili into the
bag of corn chips you realise you don't have a
fork For a
desperate moment, you consider using a
stick But, ultimately, decide to go without utensils By the
time you're done you should be embarrassed Your face and your coat are stained with chili The
phone starts to ring but your fingers are so messy you hesitate to pick it up When you see who called, you're glad you missed it The
mother and her miserable, cold child seem to be judging you You spend the
rest of the
night walking around You realise your phone's dead when you attempt to call a
friend for a
place to stay So you return to your car The
supermarket's still open but it's just you and the
employees now You buy some wet wipes For a
time you debate sleeping in your car It's now too late to call anyone So you go home It takes a
long time for you to open the
door And when you do...
