St. Catherine St Wild Pink

You wanna be easy going too
You’re gone so much now though
All you can do
Is just lean into
The bittersweet feeling of leaving home too
I know you wanna be here
Don’t wanna hide again
Quitting drinking
Was like swimming away from land
You got out of that McDonald’s
And just kept walking
It’s 9pm and the sun’s still up
Trees on the jetty
Seeded by the seabirds
How much better you were when
You overestimated yourself then
You dabbled but you weren’t disciplined
A song came free with each new instrument
Your days were like a rollercoaster then
But now it’s London
It’s Glasgow and Dublin
What crosshairs are you living in right now?
You're in heaven out in the country
But you’ve drawn the ire of a giant down in the city
Who just signed your name in the cruel black ink of fate
It’d take you weeks just to walk home from here
In this punishing heat
Your shoes would fall off your feet
Walking all the way home from Saint Catherine Street
