it's hard to wake up in the morning
when you see someone in your dreams
that you miss so much
but you don't even see them
you just see a friend
at the door
in front of a dark room
and he says
Ben,
we're glad you came to Atlanta
It's a great city
and behind him
in the room
is her
but you can't see her
it's pure darkness
but for some reason
you know she's in there
and the door closes
and it's 12PM, your phone alarm is going off
and you gotta get up for work
and the song plays
on the way
that reminds you
of all the days
that made you feel this way

I sit at my desk
and I just want to shed so many tears
until work is over
so it makes me tired
and I can go back to sleep
and see
what she was doing in there
and why she leaves me
every time I wake up
