lyrics

the crickets have been a lot quieter lately
and i guess
so have i
im exhausted all the time
even when i can sleep
i choose not to
computer fan, cool me off

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
me rambling at 5 am:

its way too early for this
im sleeping; nothing matters
cars are rising up, cars are passing by
sun is rising up, sun is passing by
dog woke up, ran out the room
woke other people up, they ran out of their room
see the leaves coming through the windows

the room is now darker than it is outside
i said id sleep
but i didnt
i said id do more work
but i didnt
i can hear the birds
they cant hear me
i mean they can, probably
if i talk loud enough
but they cant understand me
malaise
is all there is
bright computer screen // dim memories
grey & white, grey & white
no snow though
just birds
