Proof

I remember the days when we all used to rob houses

Houses all night long

And I remember the night when Jimmy ripped his trousers

Running from the cops

His blood pooled up and the level started rising

Closer to the roof

And after a while Caroline had trouble breathing

If there was anything we discovered that night

It was proof

I remember the night when we tried to channel lightning

Something went terribly wrong

He could barely make out all our dumbfound faces

And it didn't take too long

I remember when we would stand next to air vents

Hearing people talk

And we slowly became accustomed to the secrets

The lies, and the shock
