having second thoughts

by Antwan Fields - Aries

the car starts and we drive away
praying i live to see my next birthday
questions form in my brain: am i doing right
to be with this person in the dead of night
and i look back at all i left 
playing the game like dan kreft
my old life beckons,,and i think should i go back
be hung out to dry on a coat rack
and when we rolled on past my old school
i looked out, it's too cool
and should i be happy that im here
my old friends from my old life jeer
but i don't listen and i cuddle up
with my _friend as (s)he drinks from the cup
and i smile, cause im here with you
but will we always be true
king of the mountain, from where i stand 
on this hill of beans i created my own band
and i look straight ahead, not caring where we go
if we're together, that we will flow 
and we drive down halsted as night begins to fall
and i wonder, who will i call
to talk about having a second thought
which i shouldn't but upon my mind its wrought
and i wave to jimmy and he waves back
and i see poke, and i slide off track
he looks good today,my brain screams
will we ever have sex? in my dreams
shall we, my lover whispers, jolting me back to this time
that i shall now begin on a dime
i stick it in the water, my one oar
and thoughts two, three, four...
