hey, hurry up

I am waiting
I am willing
I am wanting to forget
and I will
but my heart's
not ready for it yet
I say hey, hurry up
I'm all ready to go
but my heart says
no

outta this place

friday
you come home
you call friends
you go out
you get drunk 
really drunk
like a skunk
you pass out
on a stranger's couch
you wake up
you say ouch
my head hurts
and you mutter 
how did I get here
in a philosophical tone
how did I get here
I'm supposed to be at home
how did I get here 
I just want to be alone
get me outta this place

reflection

get the fuck away from me
go bother someone else
I cried as I fell on floor
and saw a reflection of myself

roof over my head

I have a roof over my head
I sleep under warm blankets on my bed
and I admit, I'm a little too well-fed 
because I have the means to fill my plate full
every now and then I'm grateful

glory train

this is not an opinion
this is a natural fact
I'm going away
on the glory train
and I'm never coming back

temporary

today my mind is quiet
my heart is beating low
everything is peaceful
but it's temporary I know
it will soon be over
the medicine will wear off
and I will be back to normal
