Number 2 Prospect Rd

I stand outside number 2 prospect road

This is where I once learned to live

Where I shed alligator tears

The kind that flood back alleyways

You broke inside number 2 prospect road

You shattered glass just for fun

Took the innocence I left

Shielded by closet doors

You were the monster in my poem

Here I am at number 2 prospect road

It’s become a mausoleum

The paint has worn and peeled away

Deep canyons crack the pavement

And I’m reminded to go on my way

I walk past number 2 prospect road

Here is where I learned to live

I’ve moved other places

and loved new friends like they were old

but I’ll never remember their faces

The way I do number 2 prospect road
