Kid From the Suburbs

Kid from the Suburbs

Lonely kid from the suburbs,
Just hit the big town,
With some big dreams and a gun by my side,
Lonely kid from the suburbs,
That’s what I am
When you get right down to it

& People, people from the big city,
They try to pin me down & ask me about my heart & about trust
They press red flowers against the glass windows in my eyes
Hey, I had a heart once…

Mary-Lou in the summertime, blue skies & golden sands,
We danced around the party, we had them looking,
We had them saying all kinds of things
& When I looked in her eyes I knew we were connected
But honey, that was all a long time ago…
We lost each other in the wasteland of youth,
We never danced at the party again,
Sometimes things just happen that way,
It hurts for a while, but then you just get back…
Back to real life, back to having dreams & faith in better days

My heart, it’s floating on a second life,
& What’s bled out is just old scars,
& if you kissed me I would not be cold to it,
If you kissed me I would not be cold to it,
I’m a child of the Ocean,
I want to surf and just forget about anything cold,
I want to forget about anything dark inside

Lonely kid from the suburbs,
Just hit the big town,
With some big dreams and a gun by my side,
Lonely kid from the suburbs,
That’s what I am
When you get right down to it

(David Finn, 2004)

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
