Closing Time (v2)

by ·

8/17/2017
closing time
long the day
pack up your things
you cannot stay
i still don't know
so many things
I let them go
for now

reassure me
it's not for naught
miles I've gone
years I've fought
progress is slow
i still don't know
whether I'm traveling
the right road
or not

I need to rest
my eyes are tired
my brain is fried
beyond expired
my body's all go
crossed wires
explain my impatience
restless desires

the end of the day
has come and gone
I find no rest
in this day so long
I tried my best
something's still wrong
I'm on the edge
I don't belong
anywhere
