Sweet Dreams

It's safe to say
it's all the same
and there's no change
for a while

It's been you and me
and apathy
daring to turn the dial

Am I the victim of a limit?
Or a heatsink of self hatred?
Must I always see your face
When I lay down in my warm bed?

I'm still a little high on
what I had to say
11 AM fumes
are headed my way

This is where I fall apart
Inches before the finish line
Can't pick myself up again
and it's alright

Now see me drift to sleep
of hazy dreams
lined up in single file

Jump start my heart
it's hard
It's more junk on the pile.

Am I the victim of a limit?
Or a heatsink of self hatred?
Must I always see your face
When I lay down in my warm bed?

I feel like this often. I agree with Alyssa wholeheartedly. This was really deep, but short and sweet at the same time.
