Lazy Night
Shining from above me
A shimmering, glittering glory
Frozen in a heaven
Balancing day and night
Making me selfish enough to call it mine
Sleepily laying on the dark night sky
Wrapped up in a blanket of delight
Calling a name that may be mine
Seemingly drifting closer
Bringing a lovely hallucination over my eyes
Oh, how I long to be with you!
I sit thoughtfully
Smiling at my idiot mind
I finally solved the cruel trick you're playing
For how many years have I longed to be with you?
For I think I already am
As I wonder what the world was up to
As it created the stars before it created the man
As there wouldn't be a use for the stars if there wasn't man
Humans tried to understand the sky from the ancient ages
But know man never found out the secrets of the sky
We always poked and prodded it's edges
But never came to its cream
Maybe there was never a purpose for the humble being
What if the world was just being lazy?
We'll come and we'll go but we'll never know
What this silent night is up to each night
