JUST FINE

Laid out awake

Mourning a day dream

The lights doing laps of the walls

The crickets bowed melodies 

In through the window

One simple sound in it all

A buzz on the ceiling 

Was coaxing a feeling

I played on a saturday night

How i played on a saturday 

Prayed on a sunday

But wasn’t convinced of my life

The week swept me blind 

But I caught an eddy 

Safe in a circle of time

And I left my clothes

Steeping in soap

In the washing machine overnight

How I played on a saturday 

Prayed on a sunday

Meeting the sound in the sky

Ill let you know 

The next time I’m home

By then we should all be just fine 

Well that was a lifetime

I left in the summer

Left it to fade in the sun

Slept until saturday turned into sunday

Woke and the week had begun

These days move faster

Its time that im after

Enough time to watch my clothes dry

But life passes

Like night passes

Like you and i pass by

Oh life it passes like you pass by me

Without me knowing in a car on the highway

Oh life passes

Like night passes

Like you and i pass by

Ill let you know 

The next time I’m home

By then we should all be just fine
