Just Before Dawn

I had a dream just before dawn
About a big 'ol weed growing in my lawn
What it meant to me
So effortlessly
Some thing are 'cause they've got nothing else to be

And I though of you and if you're doing well
Or feeling sorry for your poor little self
And all the things that you wish you were that you're not
And all the thoughts that you have when nobody's watching

You gotta get a better hold
Of whatever you're riding on
Gotta get out what's in your head
Before what's in your head is gone
And it can be hard to find a thing
Amidst the rubble and the chatter
And nobody will be listening
But it doesn't really matter
Doesn't matter

Nobody knows what nobody sees
About what nobody said and nobody means
And nobody's aware when it's all coming down
And nobody cares when nobody's around

And it can be weird when you try and compute
A hundred lonely years in a skin suit
But there are things you can do to make it all more familiar
When everything that you know gets a little to peculiar

You gotta get a better hold
Of what ever you're writing on
Gotta get out what's in your head
Before what's in your head is gone
And it can be hard to find a thing
Amidst the rubble and the chatter
And nobody will be listening
But it doesn't really matter
Doesn't matter

Well I've just been sitting on top of the roof
Thinking about the things that you think about
When you're sitting on top of the roof
And there are more than a million ways
To spend the seconds in your days
More than a billion things to say about the ways
You seen the seconds in your days

And you said
It's amazing how much time we spend
Just sitting in our heads
And I said
If things had gone differently
We might already be dead
So

Get a better hold of whatever your'e riding on
Gotta get out what's in your head
Before what's in your head is gone
And it can be hard to find a thing
Amidst the rubble and the chatter
And nobody will be listening but it doesn't really matter
Doesn't matter
