Break In

The side of a pointed nose, it’s just the recital
Shake off all the nerves I know you’re excited
In turn for the light green robe worn straight into fashion
So hard to discern just who was invited
But broken with every chair it’s just the beginning
It's started on time but you’ve let yourself down
Take leave of the silent stare
They want what they came for in spite of a home
Cut down from the inside
One is coming over, from the other wall
It’s not right the second time running through the hall

Windowsill we sat as if unknowing of what we all had learned
