7 o'clock

Tis only 7 o'clock and life already has me down

With the solemn tick tocks of the clock

And the feeling of time passing

The only consolation that tomorrow might actually

Get

Here

The vague sense of not belonging is plaguing me

Once again

But I can't seem to shake it

No

Not this time

The wind howling my name outside my window

Knocking it's icy fists on the panes

Tryin' to get in and shake my

Bones till they rattle in their sockets

So I huddle under the covers of my bed

And

Hope

Nothing comes in

Because it's

7 o'clock

And life has already beaten me down
