shoes that fit

the cold light of morning
creeps unto the platform
and nightbirds are mourning
for the upcoming storm;

rain starts falling heavily
and drenches a rising feeling;
trains roll in steadily -
the farthest going looks appealing.

looking for a pair of shoes that fit,
walking shoes
for staying blues
and a favourable moment to split.

the cold light of morning
accompanies whistles blowing
and the rainfall is mourning
for what i'm never bawling

and while i sigh heavily,
nightbirds sleep and songs die out,
trains roll in steadily
and i jump on just to get out.

looking for a pair of shoes that fit,
walking shoes
for staying blues
and a favourable moment to split.
