I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone
We left the Hyperion and set off back to...something real worldly. Back to Connor's real life--or real fake life...maybe it's 'fake real life'? And maybe I should just stop.
Stopping...
I stayed quiet as we walked on, but I had a feelin the silence wouldn't last too long. Not on his part anyway. Dunno, but I think I've been around him long enough and I can just feel the 20 questions of Connor game when it's on the approach. He was very good at them, but I'm kind of accustom to that rapid fire game of Q&A. My mum is like...the reigning queen. Connor's way less intimidating. Well, this one is....the Connor that Vail showed me was a whole other story, and also an image I'd like to forget if at all possible.
Unlikely...
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone
Sighing, I stared at the ground as we walked on, only looking up when we came to street corners.
"Sorry 'bout ditchin' you at the hotel earlier. I kinda wanted a one-on-one with Dawn. If I would have known we were gonna take on people along the way I would have totally invited you along."
For the most part.
Wow, it's surprisingly hard to stir up conversation with someone when their memories are sitting in your closet. Maybe I should have put it elsewhere...?
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a...
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone...
