lirik lagu husky in denial - opus 28, no. 4
the cb radio crackled, all crisis and chaos and cold static. brutal rain battered my beaten truck. in the darkness, a friendly flash of red. someone wanted to change lanes. i blinked my high beams, and the taillights thanked me. mankind’s last warm connection. two teamsters, blind worms going nowhere down i~55. together, alone. always, always alone
by now, my daughter would be 12 years old. her hair smelled of strawberries the last time i held her. she promised me no more training wheels if i came to see her dance. miss one, miss ’em all
lightning burned the clouds, and they fell like ash, leaving a bl~~dy scab in the sky. against it, to the north, the hungry mississippi swallowed the great hernando~desoto bridge. what a sight
babylon was falling, it’s faulty foundation sinking into the sand
soon, it would catch me, too, but i’d built a career on running, and solid ground was only a few feet away
but then, the earth gave way, squirming, churning, crumbling beneath me. it turned, and i flew
(“for once, will you just talk to me? can’t you just sit down and talk?”)
(once, my wife asked me to sit down for a moment. my stomach tightened…)
when did i start running? everything i’d left behind…
the trailer skidded a quarter mile, then jackknifed and tossed my broken body onto the pavement. on the other side of the river, memphis rippled like a wave and sank into the ground. the buildings cried out for mercy, but no one answered. i should have never run away. too late. all that was left was silence
no more running. for the first time in my life, i stood tall and faced the wind
