long nap

By swing_the_hammer

if i knew a way,
i would sleep all day.
yeah if i had the right,
i'd just dream all night.

cause you are always there
whenever i close my eyes-
and we're the perfect pair
the king and queen of lies

please just look at me,
and tell me what you see
is it fever, worry, hope...
is it any of these? nope

cause there's no sugar in my cup
no honey on my bread
now, the best part of waking up
is going back to bed

if i knew a way
i'd sleep through every day
yeah if i had the means,
i would be living in my dreams

    dreams dreams dreams... i think that is why i love your writing, because i love the concept enough to tattoo the word on me. somehow this made me think of conor oburst, he would so want to steal this.

    I think we've all felt this way at times. The way you rhyme always makes me smile. Good job.
