A Beautiful Mo(u)rning
Woke up early in the morning, harmonics of my alarm ringin'
Rubbed my eyes, throat tickles, that must be a yawn schemin'
Let it out, stretched, hopped to the edge of my bed
Glanced at my clock, it was the morning, "7" it read
Plenty of time for showering, combin my hair and brushin my teeth
And venture downstairs to see if Mom's made something to eat
This was my ritual, It was a perfect pattern to me..
Made sure that my shoes matched with my flannel and jeans
I tiptoed down the stairs, an aroma in the air...
Of bacon, eggs and toast, so perfectly prepared
Took my seat, told her thanks, took my fork, said my grace
Finished my meal, plate in the sink, now it's time to start my day
I grabbed my sweater, my bag and i'm on my way...
Open the door as the brisk breeze dances 'cross my face
A sea of green grass in front of me, crashing like the waves
Drops of dew glowing in the morning sun, basking in its rays
The doves serenade me with song as I pass...
I hum along to their performing, ensemble cast
Assume my role like i'm just another part of the act
Then I stop and applaud their concert for crossin' my path
At the entrance of school, greet my friends at the gates
It's funny how a little motivation could go such a long way..
BUUUUTTTTTT...
The next day, I woke up to a grey world, drained of color
Alarm screaming in my ear, mashed it into the table cover
Threw my sheets and covers off me in an angry scuffle..
Spent a moment soaking in my misery and plain discomfort
The sun that was shining yesterday still hiding behind the curtains
Like it's unsure of the person I am today, scared of returning to the surface
Every thought hurtin' my head, as I work my way off the bed
Clock mocking me with how I overslept, it's 7:30 AM...
Icicles on my vanity, frozen from the coldness of rejection
Ignore my reflection, what does it matter, i'll never be socially accepted
Who the fuck am I trying to impress? Hair sticking in every direction
Broken is my essence, face hopeless, swollen with depression...
Throw on whatever clothes are convenient at the moment...
Fuck present-ability, i'm barely seeping through the motions
I trudge down the stairs, predictability's in the air...
Eggs, bacon and toast, I sink slowly, lower in my chair..
Only ate half the meal, tossed the plate aside...
Made a scene, didn't even say goodbye, just remarked how I hate my life
Crashed out the door, glaring at the wilted leaves and grass
Clouds above me, the sun still hesitant to peek on past
The shrieking noises of the birds marks another bad performance
I shoo the herd in front of me away, swingin my bag back and forth at them
With a blank stare, I walk right past my friends and them
"What's wrong with him?" "Must be low on his prescriptions again..."
"What do you mean?" "Well his smile's never really been genuine.."
"This the world he really lives in, the other's a product of Zoloft and Ritalin"
