man, I hate my job sometimes
but that don’t change a thing
when I close my eyes
I can hear the soft whispering
“It’ll be all right. Just don’t stop moving.
It’ll be all right. You’ll sleep tonight.
Just don’t stop moving.”
sweat rolls down into my mouth
eyes are burnin’ red
oh, Nebraska summer
call me when the leaves are dead
need to find a place to rest my brain
even up in outer space
they’re busier than anyone
things are not that bad
I’m just tired
please, don’t think I’m angry
I’m just tired of bein’ alone
people say, “Get over it.”
then they walk away
everyone is actin’ like
celebrities these days
Holden here are your phonies
we’re runnin’ off the cliff
into the sea and rocks
of internet and cell phone pics
no one is innocent
everyone’s at fault
that’s why her head ain’t restin’ on
my shoulder right now
I took too long
I took too long to correct so many wrongs
