Walk Your Worries
When you're feeling down,so worn and wound, walk your worries through the rhythm of this city
surrender deeply to its symphony, the whir of tires skimming across rough pavement, the piercing horns of hurried cabs
let the music of the city's many murmurs swallow you so completely that you lay down your burdens
swim in the soup of a million strangers, their soulful cries, lascivious laughs intermingled with the ghosts of countless dreams, painfully beautiful
let the city carry you on its broad shoulders through the coolness of this night and it will cleanse you by the time your feet tire your troubles will be few
this night seems to stretch on forever but in the end morning always comes too soon.
