Finish Line - Joshua James

The phone rings in the hour of the devil

on the other line

«Seth's dead» is all I can remember

Flash flood crushing passerbys

What do you do with a broken center?

What do you do with the changin' time?

What do you do when it’s only winter outside?

What do you do when you’re looking at the finish line?

Well, the fan spits up on the table

Leaving dust on the coffee grind

A race track pushing 90 in the paper

Look around, no one seems to mind

What do you do with a broken center?

What do you do with the changin' time?

What do you do when it’s only winter outside?

What do you do when you’re looking at the finish line?

Seth’s truck dead in the center

100 people come to say goodbye

Now I’m stuck, thinking of a riddle

Of what good comes from suicide?
