lyrics

Mascara on my cuff tonight

Nile wind in my plastic bag

My phone glows blue at one forty-two

Your last text folded in my bag

I pass the bakery with the orange tray

Keys in my fist, they bite my skin

I keep my eyes on the tiled ground

One block more and I’m in

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

No more talking

My heel taps hard on broken stone

A taxi splashes past the pharmacy

The coffee cup is cold in my hand

Your name won’t sit quietly

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

No more talking

At the corner, I stop for a breath

A door bangs shut three floors above

I shake the rain from my sleeve

Then I choose the stairs, not the flood

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

I’m still walking

No more talking
