I woke up in the afternoon Missed myself the morning train It's the second one that I've missed Since I tried to get going around 6am
I can't keep my eyes from tearing My hands from doing their not-so-cool shakes I reach into my pockets for something That just feels a little bit like yesterday
I can hear the whistle blowing From outside my apartment door I believe for the first time Maybe I should drive to work
We missed each other's calls from last night I counted the minutes that passed, I drank myself a thirty-three year old brandy I stole from my parent's liquor cabinet.
The 10:00am buzz to get me right Started for, is it Saturday? I don't drink but to remember I drink to remember the pain.
A .44 at close range My heart skips with great excite, The bullet-proof vest I wear when I'm shot May barely not save my life.
I've grown tired off waiting for the beach I swim with sharks blacked out in the dark Playing dares with Sarah Marie. Until the wild Pacific digs its first row of teeth into me.
