Hazy morning,
Early afternoon.
The day is drawing,
Another will be here soon.
Sipping wine like
My thirst will never end.
The TV's talking,
Again and again and again.
Old familiar,
Pains I've come know.
I'm bewildered,
Outside there isn't snow.
Drown my sorrows,
Drink away the dream.
Nobody's talking,
All of this is really quite obscene.
There is something in the way,
There's always something.
Can't get a moment of the day,
Amongst all the slumping.
Rolling and rolling and rolling away,
My mind is drifting,
But now I've got plenty more to say.
Check my breathing,
Check the news.
I'm over the distances and I'm
Missing you.
Liar liar,
My mind is burning up.
Climbing higher,
Oh please can I, please can I, please can I just wake up.
There is something in the way,
There's always something.
Can't get a moment of the day,
Amongst all the slumping.
Rolling and rolling and rolling away,
My mind is drifting.
But now I've got nothing more to say.
