An Apology

from Goodnight by Josh Belville

/

lyrics

i packed my bags my shirtsleeve got stuck
into the zipper

the boise flag flew proud in the wind
and i gave the cabbie a tip

in the airport
i felt a glass menagerie moment
if i should stay
and help my friends
or help myself instead

they checked my bags for various toxins
and explosives in my shoes

my shoulders sagged i sat and i waited
what could i lose?

as i boarded the pressure of
the feelings i've hoarded
if i should stay
and help my friends
or help myself instead

i was conflicted to eat at the airport
wendy's or mcdonalds (i chose wendy's;
mcdonald's is gross) as i munched on
chicken submerged in sweet and sour sauce
i felt so lost though my path was clear

i cursed my bags so heavy the burden
i cried over the cascades

and when we landed i was assured of my place
this was my place

in the airport the end of my
menagerie moment if i should stay
and help my friends or help myself instead
i chose to help myself
