Watching the Sun Come Up.
Johnny writing/talking/thinking to himself in the 3rd person
He had a routine, a pattern
After a job, a night job, he watched the sunrise
A different place every time but always the same time
Made him feel new
Because he knew too much
We paid Lucky a visit last night, me and Jules.
A guy with too many unpaid debts
An old friend actually, from the neighborhood
The husband of a girl I used to date in HS
The old friend was now a degenerate gambler
With a wife and kid
He should've protected himself, his family
Not this guy, no
Next horse, next card, next roll of the dice...
Ticket to paradise
Now he was in paradise.
I took his life, first-person positive
With silence on the gun
Johnny
Sat in his car, sipped coffee, watched.
The first beam of light
There she is/was, right on time.
A new day.
