Blanket Marks
COMEDY MASK
There’s nothing out of the usual
Another day’s written in the books
And the meal you had around dinner time
Was pretty good, it’s a job well done
The bed where you and your partner lie
is occupied until morning comes
It’s a good thing this violent dizziness will help you sleep in no time at all
Hey, I think I feel a little weird
I didn’t even drink tonight
Hey, my love
could you take me to the ER
It’s like the sleep that you think would be good at first
Then 19 hours pass
with imprints on your arms
It’s like the pillow you burrow under begins
To suffocate this clueless dreamer
Just sleep it off, that will always work
You’ll feel much better when morning comes
And I’ll be right there holding on to you
It’s nothing out of the usual
Hey, it’s hard to open up my eyes
But I can tell the room feels small
Did your magic make the room around me white
It’s like the sleep that you get, you can’t get enough
Then 50 hours pass
There’s rashes on your skin
It’s like the blankets you stick to were meant to be
another limb on this clueless dreamer
It’s like the sleep never ends
You can’t get enough
then 90 hours pass
Are you back home, my love
It’s like the blankets you burrow under begin
To suffocate this clueless dreamer
Hey, where have you gone? I want to know
If it was something I did wrong
you’re flashing red and blue in someone’s car
It’s like the sleep never ends
You can’t get enough
11 weeks have passed
Cops knocking at your door
And soon enough they will find where the dreamer lies
They went to snuggle with the angels
But did your sleep ever end?
Things are different now
Than what they were before
Your imprint’s on the bed
And for now on they will know where I said goodbye
And went to snuggle with the angels
