Tiredness creeping in
It's still the night
And I'm awake
She snores

The bell of St Paul's would be quieter
My cat on a zoom
The dog of next door rattling
Yet still
She snores

My eyes are wide open
These ears are all bled
The roof is all lifted
Yet still
She snores

The daylight is coming
The tweet from dawn birds
I'm so wanting sleep
Yet still
She snores

Oh please let me sleep
This madness fried eyes
Just one silent breath please
Yet still
She snores

Dawn has alarmed her
Was that all it took
I think I hear silence
Zzzzzzzzzz
He snores
