yesterday was good
yesterday we held hands
and walked down the street,
and had cheap beer
with cheaper pizza
yesterday we watched a movie
i don't remember which one
i think the boy ends up with the girl
and the best friend was smart
but that could be any movie
anyway yesterday we saw the sunset
the smoke of our cigarettes
mixing with the marmalade clouds
and as it got dark
drove down the empty roads
while i sang at the top of my lungs
as i always do
but of course
that was yesterday
and as all clichés go
it left, walked out the door
leaving a metallic taste in my mouth
as today walked in
dressed in greys
and a sad smile on its lips
