Kicked To The Curb

Verse 1

Pulled up my hood, thought it’d shield me

Thunder on the glass, night splinters thin

Shady dreams, streetlamp flicker

One word, I stumble—begin again

Their voice, sharp as empty promise

Hands shaking—mine, not theirs

They showed their hand, so slow, so certain

Good intentions scattered down broken stairs

Kicked to the curb

Out here, my breath a cloud

Gone from the warmth, silence thick

One move, lines shift, no crowd

Chorus

Kicked to the curb, I never saw

Kicked to the curb, what’s left to draw?

Lines in the dirt, hearts get raw

Kicked to the curb, that’s all I saw

Verse 2

Blink twice, memory stutters, reels

Red rain, city sighs on my skin

Closed fists, a shuffled future

Moments lost—didn’t even know who would win

Maybe I just chased a shadow

Maybe trust burns fast, then fades

Maybe words dissolve in puddles

Maybe I still wait for better days

Chorus

Kicked to the curb, just me and the cold

Kicked to the curb, no story told

Hands in my pocket, borders fold

Kicked to the curb, growing old

Bridge

Nobody warns you, nobody stays

Nobody’s painting these storm-cloud grays

Show your hand, you see who flees

Show your hand, you lose your keys

Verse 3

Fast-talking fates, fortune flies

Light flickers out, sorrow sighs

I pick up pieces, left outside

Mud on my shoes, nothing to hide

Chorus

Kicked to the curb, spun by the night

Kicked to the curb, steady in spite

Kicked to the curb, let the rain bite

Kicked to the curb, nothing feels right

Outro

Kicked to the curb, over and over

Kicked to the curb, one more time

Kicked to the curb, so it goes

Kicked to the curb, piece of my mind
