Abigail
Knew too well
What Zach was thinking.

She watched his eyes
Stare at his empty
Uneasy hands. He started sinking

In his chair.
She knew Zach cared,
But didn't know and was afraid

Of what tomorrow held.
Would he feel better
If he stayed.

And Abby wondered aloud,
"Where did the good plans go?
What do you feel?
I know you know..."

Elevator
Music Filled
A food court in a mall.

It was covering
The empty sound

"Back to work,"
She said to Zach.
"My break's almost done."

"Oh, Abigail
I only wish you knew
Where I was coming from."

And Abby wondered aloud,
"Where did the good plans go?
What do you feel?
I know you know..."

The he turned and said,
"I'll go home instead...
Abigail, you're not making sense
My love...
What have we become?
My love...
What have we become?"

"Where did the good plans go?
What do you feel?
I know you know..."
