12:00, or so says the microwave
The cat is rubbing against my legs
Feed him anymore, he’ll drag across the floor
Coffee in the maker? I’m a happy girl!
Light another cigarette and drift with the tunes
Coming out of small speakers, my little saving grace
Just to hear those vibes puts a smile on this face
Is the water still cold? I don’t need to be reminded
My patience flows with the nature of things
Sometimes I wish I could just grow wings
And fly out of this constriction you call a home
Never knew the definition, but someday I’ll know…
