Slums and Ghosts

Scene 1:

spotlight on a blank stage except an old leather couch

Smoking resin and hit rock bottom

Searching for answers on this couch

Telling myself "you're all alone."

There are no tears they have all dried up my dear

This fear is a ghost that keeps on haunting me

I'm alone and down in the dumps...thinking (out loud):

"I can't keep counting stars to keep my mind occupied

How do I get out of this slum? Why have all my dreams slowly died?"

My throat is burning and my stomachs turning

Still no answering the phone

Telling myself "You're all alone." (and have nothing to believe in)

There are no tears but it's quite clear

No one sees this grey ghost hovering over me!

I'm alone and down in the dumps...thinking (out loud):

"I can't keep counting stars to keep my mind occupied--

How do I get out of this slum? Why have all my dreams slowly died?"

end scene
