Old man
Sitting alone
In the corner of the park
Old man
Scribbling
On crumpled bits of trash

" One little slip along the ice
I followed as long as I dared
I kept waiting for her to notice
In the land of perpetual sun

I didn't care that it was a volcano
The lava ready to pour
I followed as long as I could
Watching her every step

She sleeps peacefully at night
Not worried about tomorrow
Knowing that there is a plan
And God's angel to watch over her
No matter where she lands"

Old man
Thinks he's writing
An epic love story
Old man
Twisted morality
Scrawling out twisted thoughts

" Freeway is calling
Gotta keep moving
The law is on my tail
But they'll never catch me
I'm following you
Hot on your trail
Gonna catch you girl
Gonna make you mine
Then you'll see
What's to be
Just you and me baby
Hitting that highway"

Old man
Never knew love
Pretending to know a human heart
Old man
Afraid of life
Never could get it right

" I watched you sleep last night
You looked so tender
Vulnerable and innocent
The night air was sweet
As you dreamed your dreams
I watched as you stretched
I watched as you slowly awoke
And I got to see
The first smile of the day
Pass over your lips
Yes, I watched you sleep last night
From the park
Just across the street."

Old man
Sitting alone
In the corner of the park
Old man
Scibbling twisted love
On dirty bits of trash
