Company of Fools

In the company of fools,
You are guaranteed  
To neither win or lose.
While I'm lying in my bed,
Wondering why good times,
Are always one step ahead.
 
Like a diamond jubilee,
The dust inside my room
Welcomes me.
Best not let it get to my head.
Only reminds me
If where time has led.
 
Looks like I'm high again.
I guess I'm better off
Not trying to pretend.
Having nothing left to lose,
Tastes sweeter than  
Just being confused.
 
There's a kingdom in the night.
One I'm living in
When I'm out of sight.
Where I'm the king of everything,
Until the sun comes up
And beats me down again.
