i get up in the morning
get dressed and look
out through the rush-
hour smog of the city.

have a cigarette with
my morning cup of coffee,
wake up and feel truly
self destructive.

smoke and drink my world
away cause what our politicians
say won't answer all my questions.

so shut my mouth
and close my eyes

everyone's dancing
and it's raining all the while.

it's kinda like a dream,
but i felt i had more control.

falling from the sky,
or maybe the sky
was falling on me;

nevertheless,

i'm just glad i woke up.

alone beneath the stars
with everything i fear'
i'm jealous of the moon tonight
(as you get to see Her).

nevertheless,

the worries aren't very important.

i'll cradle You in my arms
(for love is small and very frail).

everytime i look at the stars
i know we aren't far apart.

and i'm glad i woke up
or i might have missed You.
