Unknown World

Now I think I'm the only one awake

All these human bodies sleeping while driving

And I can just barely keep myself up

This comfortable life numbs

Easing into the bed

There is warm water rising

All day long and into the night

Being old accumulating dust

Our house lights up the whole neighborhood

We have the lights on

Working all day long and into the night

Not knowing it's raining

But just before going to bed I'm cold

Out the back door

There is an owl

The grass is wet

What's that other sound

I hear in the branches
