Musings before the dawn chorus
My body sleeps, yet still I wander
This city is bustling
horns honking in a jam
I wind down the window
to talk to the man
There's nowhere to go
it won't exist when I awaken
They carry on travelling
like I must be mistaken
~
Let's dress up all fancy
I'll raid a boutique store
I'm presented with ruins
This isn't what I came for
oh where's your finest?
it's here for me I say
That's where you're wrong
and I'm sent on my way
~
On a street from the matrix
she stands out in red
I call out behind her
so she turns her head
It's a special day tomorrow
I know, but I can't be there
and into the crowd she goes
both everywhere and nowhere
~
I'm sat in an old car
aunt and gran either side of me
we're on a large runway
and need to leave immediately
a plane is heading toward us
as scarey as it may seem
doesn't matter I repeat
it's only a dream
