When I was a kid
I dreamed of having
a trainer house
that was only for me

The one we lined in
was always full
brother and sister
cousins and uncles

We had to go outside
if we had to pee
sometimes there was snow
always it was cold
I'm an old man now
I still dream
of having a little
trainer house of my own
all to myself
parked in the middle
of nowhere land
where I can piss
out the door

all the teenagers
inside me
all the voices
inside those teenagers
all the pain
inside those voices
all the years
inside that pain
all the love
inside those years
all the past
inside that love
all the broken hearts
inside that past
all the beauty still
feels you
laying here beside me
forever
