Tomorrow I’ll do Monday
Tomorrow I’ll do my Monday over
And start again when the sun starts it’s walk across the horizon
And by the time it’s an old man meeting the darkness
I’ll know I’ve been here before
There aint nothing blacker than the night you weren’t expecting
There aint nothing light on the other side of forgetting
When this moment is captured and mummified in your own sweat and tears
It’s gone like it’s never has been
Never will be
Here
When you hold up your hand
To make the world stop
For just a moment admit
That the spinning makes you dizzy
When you close your eyes
Just to collect your thoughts
And instead the sleep will come
Stealing the air and life out of your day
Carry a lullaby
A spare bag of sand
A dream you want to build
And handcuffs for the boogyman
Because you will never be ready enough
when this world breaks loose
and runs you over
like a handful of marbles.
