What they don't know
Is that blinking light
Is wondering what it's like
To be more complex
Than blinking
On
Off
On
Off
The same it does everynight
It wants a little hate
It wants a little fear
It wants a little love
It wants to be human
Because Life is a little better
When it's from the view
Of a little red bliinking light.
And stares at the light
the little red blinking light
That continuously blinks
On and Off
On
Off
On
Off
The same it does everynight
He looks to the sky
For comfort from home
And wonders
What it's like
To be a blinking light
And flash
On
Off
On
Off
Again and again
As it does
Everynight
His parents fight
About him
About life
And he wishes his life
Could be as easy
As blinking.
And stares at the light
The little red blinkin glight
That continuously blinks
On and off
On
Off
On
Off
And yet never fails
To miss a beat
She wonders
What it would be like
To be as simple
As a little red blinking light
To just go on
And off
On
Off
On
Off
And never have to worry
About life again
About the hate
From her boyfriend
About the bruise
To her nose
Just never have to do anything
But blink.
