another day, another gin
the gap between the
platform and the train
he boards each night to
travel home was nothing
compared to the gap
between him and his family

cheers guys. its very (very) loosely based on a song called Bill McKay by a scouse band called The Coral. a jangly little number about a man that reminisces about his childhood days during his long commuted home then commits suicide. quite downbeat really but a nice tune either way.
