Sleepsick - Dinosaur Bones

When the phone call came,

It struck me like a tidal wave

Off of this hardwood floor

And into the bed I made.

But then my eyes rolled back,

Looking for a place to go.

Fighting off a heart attack;

Fever like I can’t control.

Sleeping all day,

Hiding from the light outside.

Come waste the day with me.

Wait for the night.

Then time stood still;

Thought about the life I’ve had

And all the faces I should know,

And all the love that I should have.
