I wait for the doorbell, hiding out
I strayed from the mattress
I like to evolve within a world
Where nothing ever happens
And all along it was winding down
And burning like Polaris
And all along it was common ground
Avoiding the embarrassment
Was it all a dream?
And was it what it seemed?
“Was it all a dream?” you asked
“Was it what it seemed to be?”
Sometimes you don’t know if you’re safe and sound
And that’s what keeps you crashing
There’s so much trouble where we want to be
But nothing we can’t manage
We are the vultures anyhow
Picking through the parrots
No sense of the colours in front of us
And nothing to disparage
Somewhere I know you are thinking I’ll go
But I would never
Somewhere I know you are racing back home
No one will overtake you
Why? High on my own?
Why? Why all alone? I don’t know
