Infrastructure

Infrastructure.

They saw a bald man 
in a convertible 
yelling like hell and 
frantically waving
as they crossed the bridge
that he’d left behind 
disregarding his urgent raving….

As those struts gave way 
with a mighty roar,
leaving chasms in the paving,
that swallowed them all 
with a concrete belch,
to a river that was waiting……
taking fourteen cars and 
37 souls all suddenly disintegrating….

Chorus- 

Infrastructure defies gravity
It’s essential to survive,
It’s what holds our world together
but its cracks can be disguised,
Even flesh and muscle’s bound to bone
until aging takes it’s toll,
Then we tumble from our daily lives
into a six foot deep black hole…..

They were the perfect couple
sharing love that they 
thought would never die,
but the flaws of lust 
broke that bond of trust 
on which all love must rely,

Now he’s living in a trailer
And she’s remarried happily,
to a man whose infrastructure,
Is stronger then her ex set free.

Chorus- 

Infrastructure defies gravity
It’s essential to survive,
It’s what holds our world together
but its cracks can be disguised,
Even heart’s and souls 
are bound to love
until lust leads us astray
Then we tumble from our perfect bond
into endless lonely days.
Infrastructure is the key 
to life and love In every way……
yeah, infrastructure is the key 
to life and love in every way.……..
