Off He Goes

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Know a man, his face seemed pulled and tenseLike he's riding, on a motorbike in the strongest windsSo I approach with tact, suggest that he should relaxBut he's always moving much too fastSaid he'll see me on the flipsideOn this trip he's taken for a rideHe's been taking too much onThere he goes with his perfectly unkept clothesThere he goesHe's yet to come back, but I've seen his pictureIt doesn't look the same up on the rackWe go way backAnd I wonder about his insidesIts like his thoughts are too big for his sizeHe's been taken, where I don't knowOff he goes with his perfectly unkept hopeThere he goesAnd now I rub my eyes, for he has returnedSeems my preconceptions are what, should've been burnedFor he still smiles, and he's still strongNothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit, that has grownAnd now he's home, and we're laughingLike we always did my same old, same old friendUntil a quarter to tenI saw the strain creep inHe seems distracted and I know just what is going to happen nextBefore his first step, He's off again
