Where will you go

Questioning the destination or choice after the day concludes.

When this day is over

Asking about the plans or actions after the current day ends.

A gambler's purse

Reference to the uncertain outcome, using a gambler's metaphor.

Lays on the road

Symbolizing a path or journey, where a purse is left, possibly losing something along the way.

Straight to your door

Describing the destination, emphasizing proximity.

Snakes have gone crazy tonight

Noting chaotic and unpredictable behavior, possibly in the environment.

Winding their way out of sight

Illustrating the mysterious and unseen actions or events.


A laugh, a joke

Highlighting moments of joy and humor that may be disregarded.

A sentiment wasted

Expressing a sense of waste regarding emotions or expressions.

Seasons of strangers

Referring to transient connections with unknown individuals over time.

They've come and gone

Noting the passage of time and the arrival and departure of unfamiliar faces.

Doldrums are pounding,

Describing a period of low spirits or inactivity.

Cheapskates are clowning this town

Observing frivolous behavior or mockery in the town.

Who could disown themselves now

Pondering the difficulty of self-acceptance or self-rejection.


Engineer, slow down this old train

Calling for a slowdown or reflection in life's journey.

Cinders and chaff

Referring to the remnants and undesirable elements being left behind.

Laugh at the moon

Suggesting the absurdity of finding humor in difficult situations.

Night birds will cackle

Depicting the eerie sounds or actions during the night.

Rotting like apples on trees

Sending their dead melodies...

Receiving unwanted or haunting memories or influences.

To me

Receiving the lingering effects of unpleasant experiences or memories.
