Night Fight

Another night Another fight I feel the burn As I toss & turn I feel my fears I shed my tears I want to dream Instead I scream Morning is here There’s still fear I take a pill As if I’m Ill It’s off to work I’m just a clerk Such a fuss To catch a bus A day in June The time is noon Out for a run Under the sun Its time to shower To smell like a flower Then back to my desk where I do my best Time is now five I ‘m still alive You work all day For such little pay I head for home To find my comb Its time to eat And put up my feet The day is done I had no fun It’s back to bed To lay my head I want to sleep And count the sheep But another night Another fight
