So you watch the sunrise sinking and she's talking in her sleep. A dream of how alone she was tomorrow. When you keep all those promises to someone. In a mirror you will find at your parents' house in 1989.

This Is A Fire Door Never Leave Open

Headlights race towards the corner of the dining room.. Half illuminate a face before they disappear.. You breathe in forty years of failing to describe a feeling..
