Sitting next to the window
Watching dust stay suspended in the air
My breath does nothing
Under the harsh yellow light
The window is cold
And blues fill the void beyond the pane
Neon flickers to life
In the morning I wake to rush and runTo keep in time time timeIn the day I have so little funI keep in time time timeIn the noon I begin to swoonFor there is so little timeNot even enough for this rhyme
In fifteen minutes you can get out of bed.
In fifteen minutes you can eat breakfast and brush your teeth.
I was looking to hit the big time Heading to Charlotte to make some cash Driving around in my Dodge Colt Vista, looking for work wherever I could find it A college graduate left completely broke and seemingly broken within Twenty minutes to 1 A.M.
