The Day After

I wake up at 11:00
in the morning
I can't figure out why I'm
so tired, yet I'm not
when 12:00 hits me
I guess I should
I should get up
and 4AM is just 
a time
I'd soon just rather forget
the day is allready 
half over
but that's when I begin
I just hope it isn't over
and you would call me back

Staring at picture of you 
for 3 and a half hours straight
I've been thinking of you
23 hours a day
and 4AM is just 
a time 
I'd soon just rather forget
when 5:00 rolls around
I think I'll 
get out of bed
and take a warm shower
that can't clean the dirt
I've become
and have
a nice clean shave
that won't  scrape the 
guilt of my face

It's 7:00 in the evening 
and I still
haven't gotten your call
and I'm wondering what 
you've been doing 
and if I'm in your thoughts
and 4Am is just a time
I'd soon just rather forget
and if I see 
you at 9
I wonder if I'll
get a kiss
this is just a day
I just would hope would end
and I'm so damn sorry
for what I said
at 3:59 AM
