The Night Life
Sister City

Each night I take in our city's song Sirens, horns at stoplights, barking dogs You could call it hopeful; call it bleak I don't care. I just want to fall asleep Radiator humming on and off right by the stove Small device suffice to heat my tiny home My good ear to the pillow to muffle the sounds So why can I not sleep now? Liquor, pills, and sheep None of them can keep me From wasting away my life Staring at ceilings My old best friend told me all about her dreams She lived another life beneath the sheets She got scared some nights and she'd forget to breathe Ring me up at one A.M. and so I'd leave My dad claims to commune with the dead Barbeques with lost relatives and friends He tells me what they did and what they said It must be nice, even though they're just chemicals in his head Liquor, pills, and sheep None of them can keep me From wasting away my life Staring at ceilings And it goes on and on And on and on And none and none And none and none And none anon And none anon And John Gay's grave
