surprise.

i never thought i'd fall asleep again.

let alone wake up in the same place twice.

it's been a long night, finding a place to rest.

while you've been standing somewhere out of

time carries onward

into your arms

and i've been discarded

too many times

besides, how can i fight this?

while i'm alive?

alive?

i never thought i'd chase that rabbit's tail.

when i was young i thought i'd never die,

or break the law and spend a night in jail

or pass the day at work just counting

time pushes forward

into your arms

and i've been discordant

for far too long

besides, how can i fight this?

besides, how can i fight this

while i'm alive?
