the dreams are the worst
the panic the waking poker face can't hide
everything so casual, so careful
the smiling politeness of the storm inside
and sleep
here is not why
all the forks in the road
only you thought you were clever
always choosing the reckless side
and sleep
you get away with all your crimes
so now what's the plan?
do you have anything left to do?
endless questions the next step
sleep will take you
what will you say?
if you ever have to explain yourself truthfully
eyes ahead
the traffic roar, the night
it's dark but no sleep now
on the edge of the overpass
in the crisp autumn air
your one way ticket to midnight
is just a single step down there
