Analysis of The New New



I sit here to talk the talk
Everyday around 4 o'clock
I sit back and relax
Talking to my friends at last
"Hey man, what you have there?"
"A little something for you to share."
As I lay back slow
I enjoy to watch the o's

Hey every friend of mine

This life means so much more
And I walked out the door, and now who's dreaming

Bright lights on streets
Where the famous stroll
California
I don't know if I'll ever call you home
But she's the answer
And it falls down like rain
Singing softly
That I've wanted to stay

This is my life
And I have a right to choose
It's not yours
Even though I may hold onto you
But isn't it strange
From what used to be
You're still not over
That I'm finally free

Brian Froh

Hi my name is Brian. I'm just someone who takes a realistic look at life, and I try to find things worth saying. Our world is going through a dark time, but I feel if we all band together through music and art, we will be able to pull through. I hope you find my work new, original, inspirational, and calming.Peace&LoveI'm also in a band where these poems have actually been incorporated into songs.myspace.com/riverwisect more…
