I really needed to get up, and out of bed
But my alarm clock just kept ringing, instead
Seems I stayed up too late, with the crickets
Then got caught in a speed trap, ugh! A ticket!
I’m always like this, so this day was the same
Got to work, new excuse, the cops are to blame
Made my coffee, then spilled it, don’t you see?
Early mornings are not quite meant for me
Let the day continue, and when it’s time
And midnight approaches, wondrous, sublime
I’m far more comfortable, as one with the night
Letting the moon, in the dark, be my light

I can almost reach it
The place my heart wanders
Where my soul endlessly flies
In and out of the darkness
Happier to hide in the craters
And follow the shadows, then
Watch the sun creep up, as it
Illuminates that famous face
While I, content to remain here
On the dark side, where no one
Can see me, as I dodge the light
Allows me to become a shadow
Blending in with your surface
Feeding off your moon beams
Reflecting, with the stars, gathering
Dreams, listening to my heart and
Realizing, I never wish to go home.

Oh goodness, what a terrible sight
When they finally turned on the light
There was dust everywhere
But they just did not care
Turned on music and danced with a mite
