Maybe tomorrow, but not tonight.

Maybe tomorrow, I can't tonight.

Maybe tomorrow, I just... I.. Just not tonight.

What should be, just isn't right.

What should be, just isn't light.

When can I handle it?

When can I carry it?

What should be, but just isn't right.

What should be, but just isn't light.

When can I manage it?

How many straws until the snap?

When can I...

When it isn't light?

When can I...

When nothing is right?

--

Maybe tomorrow, but not tonight.

Maybe tomorrow, I just can't tonight.

M-maybe tomorrow, but I... I-I... not tonight.
