Another night
wraps around me
and I'm all there is
alone
watching reruns of Taxi and Wings and
The Mary Tyler Moore Show,
popping sleeping pills with Pepsi,
smoking cigarettes and
trying to decipher all this
but I only find I'm unsure
and I want to do something that matters
but nothing matters
Oh, numb this soul,
quell this burning swell of passion,
so that I may sleep
and dream
dreams I won't remember
