Sleep City

I spent that month in the shade
Of my mother's hospital stay
A thousand hairline fractures now
When will I ever catch a break?
And clearly you're not feeling any better
Since you got home
But I play ignorant so well
That I'm starting to convince myself

I'm sinking into my mattress again
Computer screen burns holes straight through my head

She says in the next 500 years
Our planet will be dead
Smoke rising from her lips
But for now we're all saving our money
We won't be around for that long anyhow
But our lives matter
A blip on the radar, then gone forever

I painted pupils on my eyelids
So now you'll never know when I'm asleep
I had a dream you were dying
Your eyes were open, you were watching TV
