Tim Cronin - Delaware County (in short)

County of dire disappointment
County of concrete snakes that all return
County of flailing youth
County that cannot care
Why do you encompass all and encompass nothing?
Why be all this and still have determination at self destruction?
Obviously it's easy and I'm lazy
But O county of mine
County of my love
County of my life
County where I first kissed and cried
Is it you or I who makes no future here?
