So Long

another late night's welcome
silent apartment, silent film
but through the window across the way
the show is only is just beginning
i take a seat
i take a seat and watch again

colourful flames ignite
a spoon full of hatred and disgust

so long sleep well
ignore this hell
so long to the one right next to me
across the hall
but miles away
so long to my concience and compassion
he really ought to close his window

and so night after night
i watched him dismantle

they finally came to take him away
i could have shown him a better way
