The footsteps still echos
A curiosity grows
When will stop it,
They hauled you away
Yet some nights
I am at home
Anticipating a drunken voice
Avoiding another punch
Running down the foray
Of that apartment complex
Then I wake up in bed
On the cool side with no snoring
I make my breakfast
And I wonder when does it stop?
They hauled you off a year ago
Yet I still wake up in a cold sweat
I am waiting for the memory to leave me
It seems to come back for me
Like an imaginary friend
Who is lonely
