Insomniac, Schizophreniac 4.28.03
Billy just can't sleep
Never learned to weep
Things aren't working as planned
Future looks bleak
Goals lost its streak
Will he ever get this song in the can
Yeah, there's people like Billy
Looking for a fee
Jobs none available
He's starting to yell
Can't break out of this spell
Only time will ever tell
Insomniac
Panic attacks
Train bane vain insane
echolalia
echopraxia
stammering thoughts pervade
Progeny
will it ever be?
Billy's nearing that age over the hill
He sees his friends
Affluent again
He's lost as he'll ever be
Still keeping his head
over the waterbed
Pounding his pillows in vain
Billy can't sit still, he feels so ill
Won't somebody help him again?
Won't somebody save him?
Yesterday he dreamt he was buried alive
Can't he get some remedy?
He can't get out of this malady!
He was lost before
But he got back inside the door
But then those rainy days
Seem to never fade
Skeptical doldrum pout
He said to me
"I wish I was lucky like you"
Always on the cue
"Was I born on Friday 13th?"
Criminy
His life just lost its gleam
So it seems, but not really....
