Peace of Mind
I solve problems at work all day
Sort through all the rubble
By the time I leave there’s not much left
Of my mind and that’s the trouble
My mouth keeps moving it gives the impression
That I know what I am saying
But my brain shut down hours ago
And the rest of me is just delaying
Sometimes people don’t notice-
They think I know what is coming out
I actually don’t have a clue
And really there’s no reason to shout
Eventually I have to give in
And I take myself to bed
Tomorrow when my brain shuts down
I’ll just talk to myself instead
