This is how he entered How he came in With an open heart and his eyes wide A rubber in his pocket With odd socks, and a skip in his step In an ill-fitting suit with something up his sleeve A sliver of a dream, a last chance And the fear in his eyes of how dear it was held
This is how he entered How he came in Falling from the back of a transit van Crumpled, desperate for relief from the humdrum Each step a story, a song in the making Each step cemented the leaving The broken hearts left behind They were just material to him And how they would come to pursue him How they would eventually come to drag him back there
This is how he entered How he came in With his hair combed he stood in the doorway Like a lost dog holding his missing poster Just to be sure - to be sure everyone knew just how lost he was Telling his story he broke onions and sang songs The street walkers carol Soft tissue The fear of emptiness Planting holes to grow some money These were his songs And this was how he came in
This was how he entered How he came in With chips in his pocket Just waiting for the chance to get into the game With his hair combed and the checks on his shirt just right He sang of it but knew nothing of it A house of cards by an open window Bag of fragments An unsolvable puzzle He knew nothing of what you needed from him He knew nothing of giving He only knew of his desires He only knew of that moment
This is how he entered This is how he came in
