Monday

I lost track of time
And I didn't know
Saw him staring at me
With tired eyes
Silent goodbye

Didn't know
(Didn't tell me)
Where did you go
(Well I'm right here)
I guess it cost
(Memories are paid)
Wvery day we had
(Better than not having had)

He never did anything wrong
Just ran around
And fell asleep in his house

But I'm not surprised
Time takes anything; wrong or right
Just say something to justify
His life

The very last one
On the back of the truck

A pity so endearing
We made you a home

Cried when you ran
Away years ago

Now you can't come back
Until the next life

Well I wonder where we all go
When the procession ends
And the incense has to be put away

Don't leave me cause I have last words
But they remain above
With my feet and knees against the dirt

Different territory
They're a stranger to themselves
Show them what this mutt can do
Cause they always settle for the outside of youth

Give me another year
I hear sirens growing closer
Coming for someone else,
Tell me it's not you

It's just Monday for everyone else
But not me, not me
Spending some time away from myself
There he goes again

I'm awake now
I'm awake now
I'm awake
