The Empress Hotel

Ghosts walk up and down the halls of the Empress Hotel
weeping for their long lost lovers.
The stars sing sad and lonely songs in the night
as the wind wraps around me like an icy blanket
while I sit staring out my open window
wondering what strange things are occurring
in these dark early morning hours.
Trannies, speed freaks, prostitutes, and the mentally insane
wander these streets,
as their souls scream for the light to come and save them.
I lay down on my bed, close my eyes
and wait for the light to come and save my soul too.

~ Composed by Tim Page
