Dragonfly

She boards a one way train / She's leaving home again / Maybe this time she'll be strong enough / Tears fill up her eyes / As her kids wave their goodbyes / Maybe this time they'll be strong enough / Finally its fare-thee-well / Thirty three, she's been through hell / It's time to ramble on / She takes off all her clothes / The petals stripped off of a rose / The pain is finally gone / And somewhere way up in the night / The moon reflects a brillant light / And she smiles because she knows that she is free / A lonely man shaving in the sink / As he slowly sips his drink / He remembers how he used to be / The numbness in his soul runs deep / Blacker and blacker, week by week / He remembers how things used to be / His kids are grown, his wife's long gone / He stumbles home then drinks til dawn / He won't escape today / He drops his shoes onto the floor / Can't fight these demons anymore / He finally falls asleep / And somewhere way up in the night / The moon reflects a brillant light / And he cries because he knows he can't be free
