Tired, too tired to think anymore mapping who's taking the bed and who's taking the floor when it's bedtime for one + one more I won't sleep easy on the other side of the door How many drinks was too many for him? Is she as drunk as he or merely attached to his hip? Why didn't I drink til my vision blurred so I wouldn't care to hang on every enunciated word Stuck on the tricycle, always the third wheel without an outlet to express the feelings that I feel I stow away behind my teeth the words I keep because I'm weak and wish I had the strength to speak, to know the change I seek The tension is seeping from my dead eyes and this endearing disguise will be all you will see
