Night Stand

Latent communication on my nightstand,
You know I never liked that,
I never liked that.
I choke brace position never helped no one,
Now I'm just a lousy son of a gun,
Poking fun at someone,
With my eyes closed.

Trip so long,
Oozing, whining, starving moron.
Trip so long,
Through the sludge the heavy water.

So much waiting around.

Back bone, I'm so spineless,
Who'd have guessed though?
I'm contrived it's not an act no,
It's just a means to survive,
It's so contractual.
Front stroke,
Stay composed I'm on my tip toes,
Treading water from the get go,
And asking why you never no.
You never said so.
I never said no.

Trip so long,
Oozing, whining, starving moron.
Trip so long,
Through the sludge the heavy water.

So much waiting around.
