5 A.M. Sonata

 5 A.M. and I’m alone

If you understood anything I’d said

     You’d know why I left

If I understood anything  
     
     I’d Probably Leave to

The seasons change
     
     And I wait for the flood of emotions

But they never come

     Rarely

Have they ever

So I drink  

     And I smoke

Wish that I could sleep

Cough and piss instead

Hear the same car

     Stop and go

Like it does every morning  

     At 5 A.M.

Never knowing who

Never caring why

Hear the moans through the floor above

And this is the climax

     Another 5 A.M.
