"Honey, I'm home!" ::silence::

i come home alone
to a house alone
empty inside
i turn on the lights
start the candles and incense
i put the radio on low
turn a little slow and grind the air
no one's here and i don't care

but then i do
after the first shoe is off
i sit on my bed and stare at the walls
remember the him's
and wonder if any of 'em coulda been the one
to help these damn shoes off!
did i let the wrong man go?

i take the second one off
and throw it by the first
my feet dangle along
and dance to the song
black socks
dirty and moist with the sweat of isolation and that nine-to-five hydration
what am i saying?
some jazz is playing
i can act this crazy now
here that sound?
it's my permission.

the damn song stops!
the lights go out
i'm a man by all means but my manual got lost sometime ago
i can't touch no fuse!
i wouldn't even know how to begin,
or what to do

so i guess i'll sit here and wait
maybe if god sees this he'll get bored and send me my missing half
