Today I was just not sick enough

TODAY I WAS JUST NOT SICK ENOUGH (E A D G B E)

Today I was just not sick enough. The morning was just not dark enough. The smokescreen was just not thick enough.

But right now my head is filling up with all of this sticky heavy stuff. And my gut is just twisted enough.

And I drive an hour from the sea. But two times is too many times a week. Arrive and I’m just strong enough. But today is just not long enough.

 

And tonight I’ll sit down in the dark. And write a sad song on my guitar about how my life is so hard.

Poor me, I’m just not sad enough. My patience is like a garbage truck. Tip it out and fill it back up. Tip me out and fill me back up.

And I drive down the expressway doing 132 in the right lane. I’m fine but I’ll still sigh and huff because today I was just not sick enough.
