remind me why I'm still awake why does sleep elude me so? I've searched corners under-bellies empty bottles for answers but answers still elude me so i doubt myself and where I stand hardly a respectable man but genuine in whatever it is that keeps me awake until six nothing makes sense and with street lights guiding my way flickering fading fulminating I stumble trip through dawn cascading the walk down every alleyway heavy steps upon the street questioning until collapse the empty beer cans at my feet
